Soky.net server upgrades
July 16th, 2006: Important announcement!Upgrading our servers!
Soky.Net will be upgrading all Windows servers which may delay the release of the business portal one more month. We will be upgrading all Windows/NT servers (50 servers) to Microsoft Windows Server 2003 as well as upgrading any servers that are Pentium 3 to Opteron.
While we have plans to implement these upgrades one server at a time, our estimated down time per server is 5 to 10 minutes if all goes as planned. All client websites will be backed up prior to these upgrades to ensure nothing is lost in the worst case scenario. E-mail and other services will not be affected by these upgrades because they are not on Windows servers. All 5 MS SQL Servers may be subject to these upgrades as well.
These upgrades are to ensure that Soky.net continues to provide world class service to our valued clients. While this does result in a further delay of the community pages, it will ensure that once released the site will be fast, reliable and provide our community with the best user experience anywhere.
Upgrades to begin with NT #11 on July 25th.
