Thanks Isaac for the pointer! (I may have searched with the wrong keywords
on the bitbucket blog).

These 2 articles give more informations:

>From what I understand/guess, they seem to have at least 2 front end
machines and a shared storage (a Storage, Dell MD1120 DAS array).
I don't know about Dell DAS array, I'll keep on searching.

Anybody from Bitbucket on the mailing list?
