VEC website has been under pressure these last days, which is fine - we like all the visitors to come and have a look.
On top of this increased visitor count - our host has had more users joining on this shared web server, i am not gonna comprimise users experience on the forum - which means I will be moving all websites (including SimRacing.Club) to a new VPS server - which will be dedicated to us.
Our new server will be 7x as expensive as the current one - hopefully we will have a couple of new things coming which will help this. Also donations are still crucial to keep this going
Server VPS spec:
2v Core x 2,4 GHz
2 GB RAM
80 GB HDD
400 Mbps @ 2 TB
Daily & Weekly Backups
cPanel Control Panel
Server spec:
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU 2 x E5-2630 v3 @ 2.40 GHz (32 cores)
192 GB DDR4-2133 ECC REG RAM modules
SSD cached 6 x 1200 GB 10k RPM SAS RAID6 storage
400 Mbps dedicated port speed for each VPS
This means:
24/7 network monitoring
20 Gbps network capacity
SLA 99.95%
Clean IP addresses
On-board NOC team
While we keep this running for the time being, i will be working on copying everything over - this is the final move
