puffin.webarch.net is a new 4GB RAM virtual server which will replace NewLiveServer and DevelopmentServer for running Drupal and is due to go live in early 2013. Other services from the old server will be migrated to PenguinServer.

It was agreed to call this server {{{puffin}}} at the ttech meeting on 22nd November 2012, see ticket:463.

The install and initial configuration of this server is being tracked on ticket:466.
