> Today, [cloud providers Amazon Web Services and Rackspace, and thirty of the world’s biggest Web hosting companies] announced that they will support Railgun... I can't find any such announcements; anybody have links? Based on comments further down, I wonder if the author is confused. > CloudFlare will provide software images for Amazon and RackSpace customers to install That is very different from the claim in the first paragraph.

Amazon and Rackspace customers need to install the software themselves (for now). The other listed hosts have made it one-click simple without the customer having to install anything. A couple announcements from major hosts today: Dreamhost: http://dreamhost.com/dreamscape/2013/02/26/cloudflare-railgun/ http://dreamhost.com/dreamscape/2013/02/26/cloudflare-railgu...
