I really don't know how to respond to this question in a non insulting way.

I think what Radu means is that the EL server is in France not in his house.

Yes, that's what Radu means. Radu also made this clear in the first post on this thread, as well as in multiple other threads, put some people are too stupid to read (here, I said it).

um..i HAVE read that article you posted at the top...it might just be my early morning brain not deciphering all teh jargon correctly, but I have utterly failed to see anything within it that relates to power outages, other than the company has managed to avoid them for 2 years straight?

 

:lurker:

 

I fear I have missed teh point somewhere...

That is why it's newsworthy :lurker:

Yeah i'm with you on this. Entropy specifically said:

 

Last year there were a few power outages at the datacenter hosting our game server, and some people were pissed off.

Well, it seems that it happens in the US too, for some really big sites:

http://www.earthtimes.org/articles/show/ne...se,144666.shtml

(emphasis mine)

 

The bolded section is the important part here. Your post is implying that the link documents a 'big site' had a power outage, however it does nothing of the sort - just explains how RedEnvelope use 365 main for their datacentres and how they've had 2 years 100% uptime.

Jeez... you guys really sent us on an epic quest[*] with this one.

 

For those that didn't get it (like me), here's a snippet from Roja's link

6 back-to-back power outages hit the SOMA neighborhood of San Francisco Tuesday afternoon causing major havoc with popular web services. 365 Main is down, along with craigslist, Technorati, Yelp, AdBrite and SixApart (including TypePad, LiveJournal and Vox). It caused some problems with servers used by Current TV and Second Life.

 

[*] hint, hint...
