Database changeover
Sep 9, 2014

Database changeover

Yet again we have outgrown database server, and tonight we will be moving to a biggernewerfaster box. 

Here it is gathering all the power in the universe to prepare for some x-treme data processing:

We'll be bringing the site down at 10:30pm PST to make the switch. If all goes well, we hope to be back online (and faster!) by 11pm PST.

All that info stored in that itty bitty little box. Technology is amazing

Isn’t that the truth?! Hundreds of millions in transactions, to be processed by one itty bitty box.

Well, I guess you guys have your work cut out for ya. I hope it all goes well.

My fingers (and my toes) will be crossed.

Good Luck.

I couldn’t get in all morning on the East Coast. Checked the status on Is it down now and they reported a four hour and 16 minute outage. I guess what would help me is a realistic prediction of how long the site will be down not an overly optimistic, we should be back up in half an hour.

what kind of server is it, we can offer you ITAD services.

I couldn’t get in yesterday for several hours and also noted that the outage was over four hours. Was there anyplace we could have gone fpr updates or information/estimates on uptime? Was the protracted downtime addressed anywhere on the blog or forum?

I have not been able to add items to my booth since it has come back up. It keeps telling me I need to update my booth but my items are still not available.

I was pretty worried yesterday when I went to Bonanza.com, and it was down!! So I went to twitter, and saw your upgrade announcement.. whew! Glad it was an upgrade!
