Drupal Hosting
A2 Hosting offers an up-to-date version of Drupal as a quick install through Fantastico. If you'd like to install the
latest development release, our shared web hosting
packages come loaded with everything you need - Apache 2.2, MySQL 5, PostgreSQL 8 and
PHP 5 compiled as an Apache module with access to php.ini settings through
.htaccess .
If you decide to go with a custom installation rather than using Fantastico, Drupal is ready to go
from the moment you download it. It even has an easy-to-use web installer!
