BrainSpark Completes Data Center Migration and Hosting Environment Upgrades
Well nobody said or thought it was going to be easy. All things considered, we’re pleased with how things went down, despite the usual and unanticipated bumps along the way. This week we completed the last of our site and application migrations to our new data center in north Denver. While the majority of the move was conducted over the weekend of April 24th, the last site was moved over late this week to accommodate special timing requests for select customers. In total, nearly 50 web sites and applications were moved in a coordinated effort that was planned weeks ahead of time, and required an extensive amount of upgrades, reconfiguration, testing and troubleshooting during off-hours to complete. A special thanks goes out to Rick Lamb, who led the project for BSM, Erin VanClay whose tenacious testing and troubleshooting enabled us to identify and address issues as they happened, and to our old friend Jim Easterly at HostWorks for the solid systems administration support along the way.
The good news for all is that the recent changes included a major upgrade in server hardware, database and operating system software and enhanced managed services that all clients will benefit from going forward. With this major milestone behind us, we look forward to better serving the hosting needs of our clients and thank them for their patience and support during the transition period.
Happy hosting!
