Moving Day has Arrived!
Finally, moving day has arrived! This morning I've been getting things moved over to the new servers in our own datacenter, and this should provide a very needed boost to the performance of the application. This includes a CouchDB server with 24 cores and 96GB of RAM with a 1.6TB disk array, as well as a nice app server with 24 cores and 96 GB of RAM. There's a mirrored Couch pair for production, and a similar app server there.
It's been a lot of little things, lots of little code changes and pushes. Even some reconfiguring of aliases in the firewalls, but that's where I'm starting to hit a snag. I used to be able to do this, now it's meant to be handled by the production operations group. That's not too bad, but they won't push anything until 4:00 pm today, and if it's not 100% right, then we're going to have a hard time getting it right for tomorrow.
I'm hoping to get a few more tests done today, but I doubt that I'll be able to simply because a co-worker is busy using UAT to test things there. It's a shared environment, and there's no way to run both tests at once, so since he was first, I have to wait.
I'm not the most patient of people.
