We're never building our own personal sites. We're building things that need to run well at scale, and things get a lot more complicated there. I may or may not be making things more complicated by not being in the US. I really haven't been able to suss that one out yet though, and from every indication I have, It's about even.
What sort of an infrastructure do you use for build/test/release? I find that this is crucial, and I'm happy to lend a hand or just compare notes if you want. [email protected] on google hangouts.
I was wondering if they stored the keys in server, but they don't as far as I can tell. Local storage it seems, I deleted the KOA cookies and still were logged in.
So I'm curious what MySQL and KOA Sessions are being used for too.
