Imagine your website as a large library with lots of books on shelves. Of course, you, just like your staff and your visitors, will appreciate it if all the items are sorted in the most consistent way. 

In this idyllic picture, all books are situated on the right shelves and conveniently labeled, they are easy to find and manage, and different categories of users have access to certain archives. You might call this the “perfect order” and that’s what can be created on your website.

This video goes over the differences between Turbo Frames and Turbo Streams.

Acquia recently turned 15. Over the past 15 years, I’ve heard the name “Acquia” pronounced in all sorts of different ways.

It was Jay Batson, my co-founder, who came up with the name “Acquia”.

When it came time to pick a name for our company, Jay insisted that the name started with the letter A. I remember questioning the value of that. In a world where people search for things, who looks up things in alphabetical order?, I asked.

In the end, Jay was right. I learned a great many things the past 15 years, including how common alphabetical listings still are. You’d be amazed how often Acquia ranks number one in listings. It gave us a small edge.

For more background on how the name Acquia came to be, and some other Acquia trivia, check out Jay’s blog post “ah-kwe-eh”.
