Downtime resolved: 8pm-midnight on 10/6/08
Posted by dsomashekar Monday, October 6, 2008Hi all, If you tried using our site last night, you may have experienced intermittent downtime. We had significant concurrent traffic on our system that ended up locking up some of our front-end servers.
We’ve resolved the immediate issue, but are taking steps to prevent this from affecting us long term:
- Two additional front end servers to be deployed this week
- Additional RAM upgrades across front-ends
- Exploration into cloud-computing solutions to handle traffic spillover
Again, apologies for any issues you may have experienced and know that we are working our hardest to keep downtime at a minimum.
