A Little Unexpected Downtime, again

closeThis post was published 2 years 8 days ago which may make its actuality or expire date not be valid anymore. This site is not responsible for any misunderstanding.

This time for great reasons.

In Aximsite’s peak, we were up to 3 servers to handle the load.  Since the Axim has been discontinued, Aximsite’s forums (now Aximsite/Mobilitysite Forums) have declined since we peaked at an Alexa Ranking of 5000 or so. That said, the need and financial means for 3 servers has gone away. We dropped down to 2 servers earlier this year and down to 1 in the last couple months. The one server is a kick ass server though. It has 2 dual core processors, 4g of RAM, and all the other fixings.

The problem is that we just are not ready to drop to one server. With Mobilitysite getting more and more traffic and my other sites like SECTalk.com, Gotzune.com, and others… we still need the power. Most of the time, the one server was ok, but I hate to have any slow time on the sites, so we are readding a new server. It will take some time to get the sites separated between the two. Hopefully I can get started on this Monday after the Thanksgiving festivities.

Hopefully we won’t experience any addition downtime in the meanwhile and the move of some of the sites to the new server should be transparent to most.
