Virtual Server Upgrade

Simon Morley - Wednesday, December 23, 2009

A busy day for us as we prepare for 2010. We were up with the techies at 430 this morning to finalise our migration to a completely virtual server environment.

You may have noticed that we like to have a bit of fun in the office, what's the point in being bored all day. Although having said that, we all stare at computer screens a bit too much. Apart from Nick that is, who still uses HB pencils.

It's not all fun and we do spend a lot of time caressing our servers to make sure they're functioning 100% of the time. Unlike our Wireless Hotspots, we don't massage them in beer - that would just be foolish. Instead they are cuddled by a bunch of bearded men (and women) 24/7 to make sure they're happy. This week we've completed a long standing upgrade to migrate our service from dedicated hardware to a virtual set-up. This has increased our redundancy and is saving us a lot of electricity! So, good all round.

Now, tired we're closing the office until the New Year. If you need help and support drop us a line or call the office!
