Site Technology

VPAC believes in returning value to members and customers by using the most appropriate technology for a given need.

VPAC strongly supports standards compliance and open source tools.

We intend that our website is a reflection of these beliefs, and have prepared a brief overview of our website technology:

  • Drupal CMS
    • Modules including Events, Views, Webform
    • Custom staff module using LDAP lookup
    • Custom PHP/SQL blocks for enhanced functionality
  • Effective use of CSS and Javascript to balance functionality with accessibility
  • django framework to interface to accounts management and supercomputer usage reports
