5th time lucky and lots of late nights we got there
. The site is no longer on a shared server with 10 other companies fighting for resources but is now on a fully dedicated server and much more powerful just for iBikeride. All good stuff. In the end we were down for less than an hour which was 55 minutes longer than my personal target down time but still not bad really.
As you spot bugs (yes you may see a few as the code and configurations built up since launch are sometimes server specific and we are on a new one so I'm estimating a week or so of ironing it all out. Please private message me or post them here. Please provide as much detail as you can (copying and pasting any error messages is really useful).
Mostly enjoy the site and get posting.
This platform moves us out of Beta and into a production ready environment where much more is possible and our destiny is much more in our control. My only thought now though is in Feb we averaged 950 visits a day, In March we shot up to an average of 1,700 a day and already in April we are already at 2,900 a day!!. Pretty crazy growth! If we do continue at this rate of growth then we will be doing this again by July if not earlier. Either way..in simple terms the next stage of iBikeRide has just begun..
