Scheduled Maintenance on New York PoP on 07/26

Monday, July 25th, 2011

On 07/26, beginning at 15:00 EST / 19:00 GMT, we will be adding servers to our New York node to improve performance and add capacity. At the same time, we will be performing maintenance on one of our Edges.
There will be NO downtime, however push zone traffic will be re-routed to other nodes, resulting in slightly higher latency for the duration of the upgrade.

The maintenance is scheduled to conclude on 07/27 at 15:00 EST / 19:00 GMT.

Update
Maintenance is taking longer than initially anticipated. We will provide further updates, as new information arises.

Thank you for your patience.

Control Panel 2.12.1 Launch

Friday, July 22nd, 2011

Today we present 2.12, and its successor, the superior 2.12.1.

There have been plenty of questions about full sites as custom domains, and this launch addresses that with a spiffy FAQ.
The API plays nice now, after a scolding, and no longer mouths off with NULL.
We also had a little chat with Cache Inspector and listZones to clear the air.

Technical details below:

IMPROVEMENTS

  • Custom Domains
    Added FAQ for custom domains: We don´t allow full sites as custom domains, which means www or a url like http://example.com are not valid as custom domain
  • Improved Custom Domain error message

BUG FIXES

  • API
    Fixed an API issue that occurs when NULL values exist in return array: The PHP XML-RPC client does not allow NULL values. Our API does, as with this release, not return NULL values anymore.
  • listZones
    Fixed beginning 0 value & removed array wrapper for listZones functions: listZones function returns zones now in a proper array
  • Cache Inspector
    Fixed Cache Inspector validation error: A input validation error was fixed.

Scheduled Maintenance on European Edge

Wednesday, July 13th, 2011

We will be upgrading the hardware of one of our European edges to allow for better performance and additional capacity. This upgrade will take place on July 14 and will be from 23:00 to 02:00 (local time). There will be no downtime, as we will be rerouting all traffic to different datacenters. However, because of this rerouting, you may experience higher latency than usual. It is expected for this upgrade to take no longer than sixty minutes during our time window.
