Overview
ISC Web Services provides a suite of web hosting service offerings for University clients. Our primary service is hosting for Drupal and WordPress sites in partnership with Pantheon. Pantheon’s market-leading, container-based infrastructure provides greater security and stability than traditional shared hosting solutions. The Pantheon deployment tools greatly ease the process of deploying and maintaining websites. The University-negotiated contract with Pantheon provides additional services and protections beyond those provided by self-service hosting plans at a reduced cost.
Benefits
The Pantheon hosting platform provides:
- The Pantheon dashboard, which features market-leading deployment tools for Drupal and Wordpress
- Separate Dev, Test, and Live environments for each site
- A multi-dev mode that supports team development through the ability to provide additional development environments for a site
- Git-managed Drupal and WordPress core code upstreams in order to ease deployment of core software updates
- DNS, security certificates, PennKey authentication, and basic PennGroups integration are provided as part of the service at no additional cost
