As you all have noticed, we have successfully moved our servers from the Dutch
|
||||||
|
hoster [Bitency](https://bitency.nl/) to a dedicated server at the German
|
||||||
|
hoster [Hetzner](https://www.hetzner.com/) a few weeks ago.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Why? And does this mean?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
We wanted, but couldn't upgrade our servers at our old hoster because they
|
||||||
|
stopped offering the dedicated server hosting service. So, with this move, we
|
||||||
|
got our upgrade! The servers have more RAM and disk space now and finally use
|
||||||
|
SSDs instead of spinning HDDs which makes our services, IMAP and Matrix in
|
||||||
|
particular, _much_ more responsive.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you are hosting email services with us, nothing has changed and everything
|
||||||
|
should still be working.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you are hosting web pages or services, you'll need to update your DNS
|
||||||
|
records! Perform the following replacements for all records that match the IP
|
||||||
|
address on the left:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- A: `37.72.100.21` → `195.201.166.132`
|
||||||
|
- AAAA: `2a00:8240:5:10::21` → `2a01:4f8:13a:ee3::4`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## What's next?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
With more memory and disk space available, we are planning to move the
|
||||||
|
[Nextcloud](/services/nextcloud.html) service "Luon Cloud" from Void (at Paul's
|
||||||
|
home) to Torus (at the data center). It will make the service more responsive,
|
||||||
|
more reliable and not bothered by internet connection or hardware outages.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This rather complex migration will happen over the next few weeks and it can be
|
||||||
|
intermittedly unavailable. If the service seems down for a while, or you are
|
||||||
|
unsure whether the service should be working properly, check our
|
||||||
|
[status page](https://status.luon.net/status).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
We will start with a partial move first. That is, the service will move to
|
||||||
|
Torus, but all your data will stay on Void. This is because we don't have
|
||||||
|
hundreds of GBs available for y'all to use on Torus (yet). However, later, we
|
||||||
|
will probably move the data to a storage server at Hetzner too.
