All services have now been restored.
Seems that we should probably jump ship though; likely we'll try out
Ikoula. Or anyone with reasonable prices and better service than
Online.net, anyway...

Hi,
First of all, I find statements on our status page and some twitter comments
needlessly agressive ("support has still been awesomely unhelpful" on
status.haiku-os.org). I wish we could avoid that and keep calm in such
situations. It's not like we are a company losing millions of dollar with every
hour of downtime, right?
On the status page you used CST time, making it look like these problems
occured mid-day. Local time, the incident was notified at half past 5, and it
was solved at 1AM on scaleway side as far as I can tell. So that's about 8
hours of downtime. Not great, but you get what you pay for.
Are we going to try all the cheap hosting providers and jump ships whenever
there is a problem? As long aswe are hosting on a single server with no
redundancy, we are going to get hit by hardware failures. So, either we get
multiple servers and make sure we can run with one down, or we get some kind of
cloud/virtualized hosting so that we don't have to care for it. Either way, it
won't be cheap.
I would say 8 hours of downtime is ok if this does not happen again. I don't
know if it is worth spending money on something more reliable.
Did they at least solve our daily slowness issue at the same time?
