OHO Interactive continues to strengthen its Drupal portfolio and is proud to annouce our involvement in Drupal Camp Connecticut in New Haven and our support for the OpenScholar Project at Harvard University.

OHO is a long-time supporter of the Drupal CMS and will be presenting on August 28th at Yale University, the site for the 2010 DrupalCampCT event. At the event, OHO's Chief Architect, Langdon White, will discuss using Drupal to support multiple sites from a single implementation.

OpenScholar, developed by the Institute of Quantitative Social Science at Harvard University. is based on Drupal and provides a feature-rich, easy to use platform for scholarly publishing. The platform also helps universities to raise their online profiles by ensuring that publications (all types) are readily available and indexed by major search engines.

OHO is providing cloud-based implementations of OpenScholar as well as  support and customization services.

Two high-tech startups have recently partnered with OHO Interactive to wrap the Drupal content management system around their proprietary Web products and services. The two firms, xPeerient and SilverRail Technologies, are delivering 'game changing' solutions to their customers - and both needed a partner that could tackle the 'last mile challenge', getting them to market quickly.

 Prior to their launch, xPeerient and SilverRail made significant investments to develop their products. Each firm was expert in their respective market's business models and supporting technologies. Each firm focused on solving domain-specific challenges - and did so, brilliantly.

With these challenges well understood, initial solutions developed and roadmaps planned, the firms needed to get to market quickly. They needed market-facing websites and a CMS that would manage their websites and the front-ends of their high-performance web products.

To solve the CMS challenge, both firms evaluated a number of open source platforms and selected Acquia's distribution of Drupal. Both firms found Drupal's extensibility, scalability and availability of integration components to be precisely what they needed to take their solution to market.
