Technologies
The technology reflects the need.
Whether it's mobile, web, or a custom app, we will leverage the right techology for the job.

Blisstering leverages open source software to develop custom and SaaS solutions for Mobile, Web, Social Media and Voice. Over the years, we have developed an array cost effective solutions for various services based on open source technologies, which is reflected in our m2Serve framework. m2Serve allows us to deliver complex solutions up to 50% savings in time and up to 75% savings in cost compared to proprietary software stacks that deliver non-integrated mobile, web, social media and voice solutions.

Drupal
  • Open source This means there are no license fees to use it, and the code is completely open and transparent. If we find a bug in Drupal, we can report it, fix it ourselves, and contribute the fix back to the community rather than depend on the original development team to fix the bugs. Hundreds of shops and individuals fixing and improving Drupal means much stronger and secure code.
  • Clear, well-documented API - Many of our clients have specific requirements that cannot be fulfilled using core Drupal or community modules. In these instances, we often have to write custom modules to extend Drupal. Having a clear and well documented API saves us both time and frustration, which translates into saving our clients money.
  • Flexibility - Each new release of Drupal is more flexible than the last. This is due, in many ways, to the power of the API mentioned above. 
  • Large User Community - Drupal has a strong community of users. This means that when we encounter a situation new to us, there is usually someone who has been there before. Being able to rely on community experience (and in turn offering our experience) means much less time hacking through problems.
  • Security - The product of an active community of developers whose primary focus is providing a secure, efficient, extensible framework. See how even the White House has entrusted it's web properties to Drupal.

LAMP stack / PHP Development

  • Linux - an Operating System Environment
  • Apache - a web server MySQL - a database management system
  • PHP - a development scripting language

All the components used in the LAMP solutions stack are open source, which means the acquisition cost is very low. Also LAMP-based solutions are robust, scalable and adaptable. Example of LAMP-based Applications Currently many web applications on the internet are based on the LAMP stack or use some components within the stacks. The most notable ones are Google - uses python scripting language for a variety of applications Facebook - is an online social networking with over 175 million users (and growing) uses LAMP stack Flickr - is an online photography social networking with over 2 billion images uses LAMP stack
