We are pleased to let you know that we're upgrading all our hosting servers in India to improve our network capacity and reliability. Changes take place on June 15th.

 

You do not need to do anything, but there will be a period of downtime overnight from 00:01 - 08:00 on Saturday June 15th while we physically migrate servers to a new datacentre.

 

What's happening?

Due to issues with our current location which have caused periods of downtime outside of our control, we're moving our servers to the state-of-the-art Equinix Mumbai MB4 Data Center in Navi Mumbai – renowned for its superior performance, reliability, and security.

 

Why are the servers moving?

We promised we'd tackle connectivity issues – and we meant it. That's why we've sought out a better facility with more capacity for improved responsive times and better connectivity. Here’s how the new setup compares to our previous infrastructure:

 

  1. Technical improvements

    • Latest generation processors, upgraded to AMD EPYC 3 with more RAM for faster performance.

    • Higher capacity NVMe SSDs for quicker read/write speeds.

    • Connectivity to a dense interconnection ecosystem of 12 networks and 170+ ISPs, with 50G uplinks to switches and access to 5 operational Internet Exchanges (AMS-IX, DE-CIX, Extreme IX, Bharat IX, NIXI).

    • Multiple physically diverse 33 kV utility power feeds, N+1 UPS redundancy, and N+2 diesel generators for increased redundancy and reliability.

  2. Additional benefits

    • Industry-leading uptime: Boasting a high average uptime track record of >99.9999% globally.

    • Compliance: Adherence to Indian data sovereignty regulations and targeted certifications like ISO 27001, PCI DSS, SOC 1 Type II, and more.

  3. FAQs

    • What do I need to do?

      Nothing at all. Our team will handle everything for you. Your IP will not change and your hosting will not change. We are just moving your servers to the new upgraded location and network.

    • Will things be slower after the move?

      Absolutely not. There will be no noticeable impact on your site's performance.

    • Will my service be interrupted?

      There will be scheduled downtime starting at 00:01 on June 15th 2024. We'll run all changes overnight from midnight until the early morning of June 15th 2024 (India time).
