We’re Making The Switch To Rackspace
Published on October 22, 2008
You might not see any new stuff on the semvironment blog for a week (give or take a few days), as we’re switching all of our sites over to Rackspace. The company is expanding rapidly lately, and we feel the need to get a dedicated server for maximum support and protection for our site, our clients, and our partner sites that we host.
Wish us luck as we make the big switch!
You won’t regret it. I have several boxes with them and the benefits of not worrying about anything FAR outweigh the prices they charge.
I’m quickly approaching the need for a dedicated server. I’ll be anxious to hear about the transition AND how you like Rackspace.
So far, their support is fantastic (and I’m a n00b when it comes to this server stuff, so they’ve been great to work with). If you know what you’re doing, the transition is pretty basic. But if you’re like me and when your system administrator says “Apache,” and you think he’s talking about a Native American tribe, then the transition will be difficult. Which is where the good support comes in.
We’re finally getting everything settled down. We’re still getting our email and some databases migrated over, but semvironment.com is now on Rackspace!
