Parse explains their Cloudstack

The title used is extremely misleading: CloudStack [1] actually is software that lets one build their own Cloud, but Parse is not using it, they're using AWS.<p>Calling it a "Cloud Stack", and not "Cloudstack", would have probably been more appropriate.<p>Also, the CloudStack name actually is trademarked by the ASF.<p><pre><code> [1]: http://cloudstack.apache.org/</code></pre>

i'm always a bit disappointed when somebody says in an article "here's my stack : i'm using amazon". It's almost as useful as saying "i'm using a server".<p>i'd like to know the web server technology, coding language, database technology, and scaling and replication technology. Then we'll have something to talk about.

I think this company's name really throws me off. I keep forgetting what they do and invariably I think "They offer some kind of parsing service".
