Technology

At Raleigh Interactive, we utilize open source tools to provide our clients cost effective solutions.

The Stack

We deploy web sites on a LAMP Stack. LAMP stands for Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP. The combination of these tools is the cornerstone of the modern web and has proven to be effective time and time again. Although we do have the flexibility to work within other environments, we generally recommend against it.

With the help of our friends at Haus Interactive, we can provide powerful web hosting on our shared server located in a world class data center. Need more power? We can work with Haus to build a dedicated server that meets your needs.

Drupal

The open source content management system Drupal is our #1 recommended CMS solution. More than a CMS, Drupal is a flexible and extensible framework upon which sophisticated user interfaces and feature rich web sites can be built. While the core Drupal package is rather limited in features, a growing number of contributed add-on modules offers nearly endless options with very little work. Need a feature for which a module doesn't exist? No problem! With the flexible framework and our 5 years of experience with the Drupal API's, Raleigh Interactive can quickly and cost effectively build custom functionality for your web site.

UberCart

One of our favorite add-ons for Drupal is UberCart. This shopping cart software integrates with the Drupal content management system and allows you to easily maintain your product catalog.
