Host Switching

We will be switching hosts today so be prepared.


Downtime will be minimal. Expect a small map rollback.


Some recent builds may not carry over due to this rollback.

This new host will provide us better uptime and connectivity, and is much more reliable!

I know it's probably not my place to ask, but would anyone be willing to share info of the old / new host? Just like a name and location for reference purposes.

Better place to ask next time is via PM or if you guys have a staff section?

I'm well aware of those options. I assumed this was in a different section though. And I am not unduly worried if no-one responds to me or removes the post. I am simply registering my wish to receive some information. What people do with regard to the request is entirely their own decision. For instance, you called me out on it to say that perhaps it's in the wrong place. I say that it's perfectly positioned to be noticed by whomever wants to see it. No-one can object to my querying these things. They can however refuse to share the information, either through a private channel or a public one.

Of what I know, OVH is the new VPS hoster probably in the USA, I believe I can state this as it was talked about on the minecraft server on the public chat. However, like you say if this information shouldn't be revealed you may delete my post but I doubt this should be hushed up. On the contrary this should celebrated as it envisages even more stability.

Like Reepz said we're switching to OVH which are known for great ddos protection and stability. DemonVPS was our old host, don't ever go there.

As for location it'll be hosted in relatively the same area, maybe a state to the left or right, I don't know the exact place.

But latency wise you everybody should be fine.

DemonVPS (Old Host):

- 4GB RAM VPS

- Costs: $20.00 per month

- Issues: Constant internet downtime (mostly due to Ddos attacks), also caused the bad connections between MySQL and VPS servers.

 

OVH (New Host):

- 4GB RAM

- Cheaper (Now $11.00 per month)

- Benefits: Better internet service, excellent Ddos protection, number 2 host in world, very big company.

 

We will be able to use the left over money towards advertising.
