Stories in the "Craft of Code" series highlight Linode's technical features as well as the usefulness of its no-tiered, 100 percent human customer service.
"We created 'Craft of Code' to humanize cloud infrastructure by giving people an editorial-style window into the amazing things developers build and deploy in the Linode cloud," said Mike Maney, director of corporate communications, at Linode.
