Cellar cloud move

OK we are going to move into the cloud!

The actual Cellar will soon move into a virtual server, located in a data center in Newark, NJ.

You may not even notice when it happens

It's ready to go now, but such a scary thing. The actual change is, I close the current place, copy the database to the new place, change the DNS to point to the new place, and in an hour everybody is up and running in the new place.

I'm thinking Saturday afternoon Eastern time

As damp as the cellar?

Given the fog here for the last few weeks, I'll be right at home living in a cloud.

Security? (I know this is a stupid question and I apologize in advance - this is my anxiety talking)

I'm curious. How big is the Cellar? If it were to be archived, how much space would it take up?

A cellar in the clouds. God's basement. Or the attic of The Beast

Security is identical on and off the cloud.

Insiders! If you want to see how fast your connection to it is, and I think it should be the same for everyone, you can go to www2.cellar.0rg which right now is a copy of the Cellar as it was last night. Don't log in or post, that is just a test.

Size: the code and all the IotDs take up about a gig. The messages and accounts take up 4 gigs.

Seems faster. I went to one of the image threads and it loaded instantly.

And attachments? They must take up a lot of space?

Edit: Actually, maybe not. "You are currently using 189.27 MB to store 2,648 uploaded attachments." I feel like I am a fairly heavy user of attachments here. So I can see my attachments fitting in that 4 GB.

I hope it is actually faster, that would be cool - if it is, it's the SSDs it will run on, not the Internets connection which should be about the same.

I mean here we are on the east coast, DC to Newark is Leeds to London... the ping to that server is like 15ms. It might as well be a local system at this point.

Uh sorry for all this techie-spk

But as long as we're lookin', if you comprende, you could ping cellar.org and then ping www2.cellar.org and tell me what you see. For me, cellar.org is around 28ms, www2 is like 18ms...

how to ping a website
