Tried to explain up front our 3 tier's of application type, have added in a section linking off to the tagging document I made. Should the entire document be included? I do not know...

The Mo-Factor App

In the spirit of Twelve-Factor Apps, this is a list of concrete things that you can do to make your software better. Some of it overlaps with Twelve-Factor Apps, but it's all good.

Comes in 3 types of flavour

  • Stable - something like popcorn.webmaker.org this is a high-end, high traffic site and is built to ensure that it can cope with both fast feature iteration and high peaks in traffic.
  • Immature - something like source.mozillaopennews.org this is a site in production but development is less regular and traffic less heavy. However if things do need to move quickly, or if we're especting a planned peak in traffic the app can still cope.
