Site transfer is underway

 

Sadly, the transfer to DreamHost did not work. Instead we have moved our site onto a new area at HostGator.

I have just begun the transfer of GenerousGenealogists to our new virtual private server.

Hopefully this transfer will go unnoticed on the site. The end result of this transfer will be a site which is fully backed up and running on its own server space.  This should go a long way towards improving our overall site performance and reliability.  To quote from the DreamHost site:

DreamHost VPS (Virtual Private Server) is a premium hosting solution. Available as an add-on to an existing DreamHost plan, VPS’s use Linux-VServer to create a “virtual machine” that protects a user’s CPU and RAM resources from other users on the same physical machine.

  • Protected CPU and RAM
  • Persistent processes are allowed (and will never be killed)
  • Ability to alter the memory on the fly, without the need to reboot
  • Ability to reboot the server from the Control Panel
  • Historical memory and load graphs can be viewed on the Control Panel

100% of any/all donations will be applied directly to our DreamHost hosting bill. (Unfortunately, once again, I will not be getting rich quick…)
