High Performance Web Hosting Upgrade
As a continued effort to improve our service for you, we will be upgrading our servers on Wednesday, August 5th. The new servers will include a major hardware upgrade for both improved performance and increased disk space allowance. All old servers will remain active while the new DNS propagates, so no actual downtime is expected. A full press release will be released later this month detailing the new enhancements.
Some benefits of this upgrade include:
- New high performance hardware
- Dual Intel Nehalem 5520 Processors, 8 Cores (16 Cores displayed with Hyper Threading enabled)
- 12GB DDR3 RAM (Noticeable improvement over current DDR2 RAM)
- Caviar Black Hard Drives – High performance drives w/ dual processors per each drive. Greatly improves disk i/o performance(A key factor in dynamic and database intensive websites & applications).
- R1Soft CDP Backup’s – You will now be able to restore backup’s right from your cPanel control panel. It includes daily and hour-by-hour restore points for you to choose from along with snapshots.
- Increased disk space and bandwidth upgrade’s for all web hosting plans, free of charge. Upgraded plans can be viewed directly on our site at http://www.elief.com/web-hosting.php or under our Magento Hosting plans.
The migration will begin around 8:00PM EST on 08/05/2009. Your new server IP will be 206.123.100.130. Those with dedicated IP’s will also receive a new dedicated IP, which you will be able to see from within your cPanel account.
Feel free to let us know if you have any questions regarding the upgrade or migration, through our helpdesk, or on twitter @meLief. We thank you for your continued business.
