For anyone wondering what happened yesterday – it wasn’t us! This was for around 20 minutes and hit most parts of the Internet in the UK, whereas you might’ve been able to get some International sites like Google, pretty much everything UK based would have been inaccessible.
Details available on The Register.
You can see the effect [...]

We’re now starting to move services onto our new load-balanced platform. In particular, for Wordpress sites using SuperCache you can expect to see a x10 speed increase in terms of page delivery. (although you won’t see this directly as your bandwidth / browser will be unable to keep up)
Benchmarks are showing that the new system [...]

The DataCenter just experienced a connectivity failure, yet another well-done and many thanks to our friends at British Telecom. This time backups / fail-over’s cut in so the interruption in service was literally only a couple of minutes, maybe now BT are making a healthy profit, some of that money will get pumped back into [...]

Another problem yesterday (18th May) took parts of the service off-line again. This time the power went off when an engineer fell off a ladder onto the UPS unit providing power to the suite in which our kit resides. Although power was restored relatively quickly as were some services, disk / file-system corruption hampered reboots [...]

We suffered major outage today at our Data Center, or rather our Data Center suffered an outage which resulted in all our kit not being accessible from the outside world.

If you’ve familiar with HTML and have ever looked at new Web 2.0 applications and thought ‘wow, that looks difficult’, don’t be fooled, what you’re seeing is typically far easier to achieve that using traditional programming techniques.
Just to prove it, here’s a quick tutorial …

We’ve been working on a new platform for hosting PHP based applications and are happy to announce it’s availability as a stable product. This is something we’ve designed in-house and presents options for resilience, redundancy and load balancing with the support of multi-node replicating MySQL servers.

We’ve have a new hosting option utilizing code from SMF (SimpleMachines.org). Compared to our previous Forum offering based on Plone, this is an incredibly complex however equally powerful online messaging system which currently seems second to none in terms of features and abilities.
Our first site is up at http://forum.linux.co.uk, take a look and tell us what [...]

We’ve just launched a new customer site which is available on http://jeremynortham.net. Features particular to this site include the news slider at the top of the home page, the Forums which are implemented using SMF, and theTimeLine widget on the Bio page which seems to have many potential uses elsewhere.
The Timeline widget itself is fairly [...]

Well it’s still a little rough around the edges and there are some features yet to be added, but the new site is now up and running.
One of the main features of the new site (apart from it being based on Wordpress rather than Plone) is it’s ability to run blogs and integrate with to [...]
