That’s where more user-friendly hosting platforms like Shifter are making inroads on marketing JAMstack technology to a less-technical crowd. They provide all-in-one “serverless” architecture solutions that generate static files from WordPress sites and serve them via CDN.

This is a really interesting effort. great first step to take advantage of #serverless benefits. curious as to the next step…

Want to know how @GetShifter brings #Serverless technology to one of the most used CMS platforms?

As the first commercial product to provide serverless WordPress hosting, Shifter offers a unique way to tackle the security concerns that plague WordPress and its plugins and themes. Because the software is used by more than 27% of all websites, it has become a big target for hackers and spammers alike.

Awesome merging of old and new tech.

@GetShifter is applying #serverless to a boring problem everybody has (#WordPress deployments), which is a very smart move.

Shifter: a static site generator for WordPress build on top of an AWS #serverless back end. Cool stuff.

How @GetShifter Introduced #Serverless Hosting to #WordPress w/ #AWS, #DynamoDB & the Serverless Framework.

The one thing that makes me so excited about Shifter and having you guys on, is that I’ve not heard of this type of solution.

This looks very good. Direction of travel imho for WordPress architecture

Shifter built a docker based system, deploying WordPress to Netlify – awesome!

Shifter looks really interesting in the Static Site world. Might have to have a play at the weekend.

Anyone running their @wordpress site on @getshifter? A serverless WP install kinda sounds amazing. Wondering what the limitations are.

Shifter offered a number of features which is very hard to implement with WordPress unless you invest a great deal of time and money.

As an engineer, I also think it’s a fantastic use of technology. As a blogger, it gives me the performance and scalability I’m after, at a price point that is much cheaper compared to other hosting options.

This is what @asked_io has been preaching for months now.

Server-less WordPress hosting? 🤔 A huge portion of blogs and small websites would be better served by a faster, cheaper, and easier to manage serverless environment.

This is interesting. Serverless WordPress.

I googled “serverless wordpress”– pretty much as a joke. So surprised to see such a nice way to run WP @getshifter!

Thank you to Daniel Olson for introducing me to the #WordPress-centric static website universe of @GetShifter — this is a v cool system.

My new hosting provider, getshifter.io, does exactly that! You can still work using WordPress, create amazing content, and Shifter will deliver it completely as static files.
