Accelo Infrastructure Upgrade

For the last few months we've been seeing some pretty amazing growth here at Accelo, and we've got some exciting things up our sleeves which promise to ramp things up even further. 

To ensure Accelo stays fast and responsive we've been working behind the scenes for the last couple of months to transition our back-end systems to some much bigger infrastructure which will enable us to scale further, faster and without subjecting you to any more of our growing pains.

The time has come for us to make the transition to this new infrastructure, and while we've planned and tested extensively to ensure a minimum of downtime, there's a chance you might have interrupted access to Accelo during the maintenance window outlined below as we move things around in the background.

Planned Maintenance Period:

• Sydney Time: 2pm Friday the 22nd until 2pm Saturday the 23rd of November
• London Time: 3am Friday the 22nd until 3am Saturday the 23rd of November
• New York Time: 10pm Wednesday the 21st until 10pm Thursday the 22nd of November (Thanksgiving Day)

Note that we do not expect anything more than a couple of periods of downtime stretching no more than a few minutes each during this period - we just wanted to let you know in advance. If you want to keep up with the blow by blow of the upgrade, follow our @alstatus account on Twitter.

Update: wow, that was smooth. The whole process completed in less than 4 hours with just 4 minutes of downtime (at around 6:10pm Sydney, 7:10am London and 2:10am NY for the curious).
