Hi everyone.

Just a quick heads up that early to mid next week sometime, we're going to be acquiring another, significantly more powerful server. That server will become our main webserver, while this server will be retained as a database server. It's hoped that this 2 server setup will significantly improve the website speed during peak usage periods. We aren't suffering any regular downtime at the moment, judging from the lack of complaints, but I'll be the first to admit that things can be a bit sluggish here at the busiest periods. ^^;

Because we're retaining and repurposing this this server, not replacing it, any downtime caused by this whole process should be fairly minimal. I should be able to give you all 24 hours or so of warning before we actually go through with it.

Thank you for your understanding and co-operation.
 
So you're saying the site isn't likely to be unavailable while you're making these server adjustments, right?
 
Yes, and this sounds like something that should imrove this place, no that I'm saying that anything needs to be improved! ...... -_-'..... Uhm... yeah....
 
Yay! But not on that day!

So what more is being added? More PM space?
 
i apologize.

back on topic: how much bigger is this new server gonna be then the old one?
 
Great news!!! Hopefully after this, everything will run smoother
