b5media Needs New Servers

I’ve been intimately involved in the server issues over at b5media. Lot’s of issues. Very technical. Needless to say enough is enough. The 6 blogs that are being moved over to the new server are the biggest of the big, generate the most revenue and are losing a huge amount of revenue a day.

Jeremy posted an entry requesting proposals from service providers over at b5media’s blog.

As many people have noted, we’re having server issues. To be honest, it’s no longer load issues. In fact, the several experts we’ve brought in to have a look are stumped. And the server center says there is “nothing wrong” with the box, even though it’s throwing scads of errors, MySQL keeps dying, one server refuses to talk to another, etc, etc, etc.

So, we are looking for another server company to go with. We’d likely be looking at 3 servers initially. We don’t need a lot of support, but we DO need the servers properly configured initially, and we DO need them to stay up. Ideally all 3 would also be on the same switch, or close to it, since they’ll be talking to each other pretty heavily.

If you know of anyone, or are a server provider who would like to talk, please email me or even call me (506 466 3855), as this is incredibly urgent.

Anybody who can provide this level of service, please stop reading this entry now and go contact Jeremy.
