We’ll be conducting server upgrades Saturday February 2nd from 10pm – 8am CDT. During this window we will be moving our systems into the new blade server architecture with the following advantages:

High Density Blade Server Benefits:

Performance
• 20% more performance per watt then standard rack server architectures

Power
• We will be doubling our servers processing power
• We will be increasing the amount of memory on our server by 50%

Scalability
• Easy setup and with remote management
• Quick ramp up time for new services, capacity, and resources

Manageability
• Simplified network infrastructure, power management and cooling
• Hot swappable technology

Network Speeds in partnership with Cisco Systems
• 40GB uplink between blade edge and core switch
• 40X faster than most networks
• Removes network latency in delivering information
• 10GB network
• 10X faster than most networks

This process requires no action on your behalf, and once completed, all services will be restored.
