Scheduled maintenance tonight
posted by Otis on September, 30 1

Hi all,

We are moving to a new datacenter tonight, and Goodreads will be down from approximately 8:00pm pst to 11:00pm pst. Our poor old servers have served us well, but their time is past and we have some young, hungry, and very *fast* servers waiting to go.

We know Goodreads hasn't been the fastest of websites lately, and this should really improve things if it all goes well.

Wish us luck!

2658968 Good Luck! And hopefully you won't need hammers. (When one needs hammers when dealing with computers, something is VERY, VERY wrong.)

I know how heavy those servers are; especially when you try to put them in racks at chest or head height. :)
