Oh, that’s smart.

For the record it’s:

I’ve been using them for about 5 years. There have been problems but any outages were fixed quickly and response were professional.

Imcompetent is one word that springs to mind

And what high profile data centres had outages last year that weren’t caused by someone blowing up power transformers or using a shotgun on their network cables? I mean, if someone had dug through your cables with a JCB in citywest, that would be understandably outside your control – but air conditioning and internal power distribution are by definition within your control.

At the last outage, it was noted in your report that the seriousness of the outage was compounded by the time it took for systems to recover after power was restored; this was a configuration problem, which your comments on the h365 blog imply have not yet been addressed.

And I can’t see how attacking anyone who points out that there are problems can be a part of the engineering solution to those problems.

I don’t think it’s fair to say we are an industry joke. Today’s problems are very very frustrating for us, but like a number of high profile data centres in the last year that have had problems – we fixed them fast and are getting back to normal. We did not suffer a full outage, which is testament to the investment we are continuing to make. The DNS problems are annoying, and we have a project underway for the past few months to move all DNS to another platform. It’s a pity this wasn’t completed.
