Hey everyone,
Sorry for the extended outage today, there was a massive power outage at the data center where our server is located shortly after noon today, and when they tried to transfer power to their backup generators the transfer switch failed. We had to wait for them to install a backup transfer switch, get the power back on, stabilize the environment, and then start powering up the PDUs and finally the servers.
So, 7.5 hours later, we're back :)
We'll likely see some slowness the rest of the night as the servers are really being hammered right now, but that should subside later and we will be good to go.
