DedicatedNOW

We have a large scale DDoS attack right now our engineers are working to resolve it.

A couple of racks in our NJ Datacenter is having some issues right now. We will let you know when its backup!

To DedicatedNOW Customers,

We want to say we apologize for the downtime issues this morning. We fully understand our downtime issues impacted your service and your core business. For this, we apologize.

Concerning the issue at hand: Our outage began at exactly 8:47 AM. Our engineer’s initial assessment of the outage revolved around networking. More specifically, our initial assessment led us to believe fiber was cut. This was not the case.

Upon further investigation, our network team identified the problem as a software bug on our main routing environment within our New Jersey Weehawken DC. The software bug put our redundant core routers into a loop; thus, this morning’s outage took place.

Once identified, DedicatedNOW lead engineers worked with our vendors to restore connectivity to impacted services as soon as possible.

As of 11:50 AM, all DedicatedNOW services are up and running. Our engineers will continue to investigate the outage to determine the full root cause of this morning’s event. If you would like a full copy of the report once the root cause is determined, please reach out to DedicatedNOW Support.

Again, we want to apologize for the outage this morning. We understand you rely on DedicatedNOW solutions to power your business platforms. We thank you for your patience in this matter.

If you are experiencing any service issues, please contact Solar VPS Support at [email protected] or open a ticket via the DedicatedNOW Support System.

Respectfully,

Jason Silverglate
DedicatedNOW CEO

Thoughts on Web Hosting: Dedicated Servers vs. Virtual Private Servers

http://ow.ly/gnKID

Keep the Internet Free and Open...

This isn't our normal fare but it's important. Keep the Internet Free and Open.

From the mouth of Vint Cerf, "Starting in 1973, when my colleagues and I proposed the technology behind the Internet, we advocated for an open standard to connect computer networks together. This wasn’t merely philosophical; it was also practical...But starting in a few hours, a closed-door meeting of the world’s governments is taking place in Dubai, and regulation of the Internet is on the agenda."
