"
First and foremost, we would like to extend our thanks for your continued
support for as long as you have been with us. Without your continued support,
we would not be able to continue to provide the high caliber of products and
services as we do. As technology changes, Perkals needs for hosting grows, it is
imperative that we keep up with it. We have decided to perform some upgrades to
our internet server/service (The websites starting with gifts) in light of load balancing, to ensure a continued
high-level over service for 2006, 2007 and beyond. This upgrade is happening
right now and will be completed by Monday 26 March 06
What this means to you:
9AM 24-03-05: Over the next 24 - 48 you may
experience some errors. Login may be a problem and other database errors have
been reported. Please don't worry about this, everything will be back to normal
by no later than midnight 24-03-06. We have taken many precautions to ensure your
browsing will continue to resolve without service interruption.
Advantages to upgrade:
- Improved network
performance ( ~200% Gain in network performance as now we have our own GigE
line) - Faster Hard Drives and more
disk space - Improved back-end Security- Improved DOS (Denial of
service) protection- Faster reboots
The following has been
upgraded on the new server:
Dual 64-BIT AMD Opteron 248
2GB Ram
250GB SATA Drive
1 GBIT Network uplink
As mentioned above this wouldn't have been
possible without you, our loyal customers. So thank you again and our apologies
for any inconvenience over this 48 hour migration..
Kind Regards
Philip Kalinko
- Director Perkal Trading CC
