ATGLaunchChecklist.com, an online resource for ATG specialists, found its permanent home at Spark::red in October 2013.

Originally created and maintained by Kelly Goetsch, the project grew significantly during  the last couple of years. With hundreds of people sharing their knowledge on the best ATG deployment practices, ATGLaunchChecklist.com has become an online resource that provides detailed guidance for ATG developers and architects on how to deploy and successfully launch new ATG websites.

ATGLaunchChecklist.com has matured from a small side project I started to a full fledged community-driven initiative that is used by ATG practitioners around the world. Hundreds of people have committed to the initiative with thousands of people now using it on a regular basis. The increasing growth of the initiative and the special skills required to maintain an active community led me to ask Spark::red to take it over. They bring extensive hosting, software and community building expertise to the initiative so it continues to thrive.”

– Kelly Goetsch, founder of ATGLaunchChecklist.com

Spark::red is honored to host such a popular resource as ATGLaunchChecklist.com and encourages all industry experts to contribute in order to keep the information provided accurate and up-to-date.

“We started the company because we believe that Oracle Commerce is a great product. However, the industry is very dynamic and keeping up-to-date with the most recent product changes and the best implementation practices is not an easy task even for an experienced ATG specialist. ATGLaunchChecklist.com helps people who are new to ATG by making the process of learning easier as well as ensuring that experienced ATG developers and architects keep learning from each other.’’

– Russell Moore, Founding Partner at Spark::red.
