The Big Move

At the moment, I’m working on a new server for the hosting site and am working hard in geting it up and running with the minimal of pain involved to my customers involved. My first attempt onto a small machine failed when one person’s blog got totally screwed up by software that I didn’t realize was screwed up as bad as I thought.

Now I took one of the most powerful machines I had and pumped it full of RAM (8GB) and split it into 3 servers. This makes use of the server for 24/7 deployment and relieves the need for more than 2 servers.

The MySQL server will also be put onto a power system and be given a boost to perform at its best. And since data on the DB will be important to my customers, I will be pulling it off from public view and filter connections to allow the webservers access and no one else (except for me, of course).

So stay tuned as the move goes into Take 2.
