Developing and Administering a Drupal website can be tedious with so many module, permission choices and configuration values.

Drush is a command line shell and scripting interface for Drupal. Drush allows you the website developer or administrator to easily download, enable, disable, uninstall, and update modules/themes/profiles/translations using an interactive shell in a familiar Linux package management style. For instance you can `drush dl views` and then `drush en views` in a Drupal webroot to install the Views project. Or, you can update your entire site and its Drupal related dependencies with `drush pm-update`.

This article will show you how to deploy your git repo into a shared environment using Arvixe. This article was originally written by Arlo Carreon over at his website. Stop by and take a look!

Git is rapidally becoming more and more popular; and while Github is a great way to store your projects, you will need a way to deploy your web app to your shared hosting. Arvixe is one of the most affordable and reliable shared hosting providers I’ve come across and a perfect example for demonstrating how to deploy your git repo into a shared environment.

1.) Setup SSH Access with Arvixe

Make sure you have SSH access. Shared hosting accounts with Arvixe do not come with SSH access by default. You will to go to the support chat and ask for SSH access, this will only take minutes and is effective immediately. Once they give you access, make sure you can login. Here is how you would SSH into your account with your Arvixe username and password.

Arvixe is trying to help introduce a new paradigm to academe – the Personal Learning Environment. The PLE is a topic that has already gained quite a following and interest internationally, but is just beginning to take hold in the United States. Ames Brown of Post University is working to create a PLE consortium and formally define the PLE for all to access at w3ple.org.

The basic idea is that students are given a web platform to create and share their own knowledge. Post University, a traditional New England university with an excellent online program, is a notable example of how the PLE can be implemented today – all incoming students in the university’s Master of Education program create a personal website and unique domain name that they continually build upon throughout their degree curriculum.

Arvixe is uniquely prepared to serve the needs of universities, right now. Just as the M.Ed. program at Post University has a special Arvixe landing page with a simple sign-up process and custom billing, Arvixe is also expanding to make registration portals available for other universities nationwide, such as:

• arvixe.com/calpoly
• arvixe.com/asu

Let’s start by learning about the history of the PLE and it’s role on the web, and how hosting companies such as Arvixe can help the process!
