The second – and currently last – phase of our move to faster storage has now been successfully completed, and e-conomic is back online again.

Preliminary benchmarks show quite some performance improvements – although we expect this to be most noticeable as ‘much smaller peaks at high load’.

In addition to our storage upgrade, we’ve also been working on some ‘softer’ optimizations, particularly for the e-conomic API. More on this shortly…

We’re happy to announce that phase 1 of our previously mentioned storage upgrade has now been completed – and rather successfully at that, with e-conomic being fully available more than 4 hours earlier than initially publicized. As such, the move itself actually reaped the first benefit of our faster storage

Regardless, we once again regret any inconveniences caused by e-conomic being offline.

In order to support our continued growth, as well as improve performance, we’ll be moving to faster storage media during the next two weekends.

Therefore, both the e-conomic application and API will be offline during the following two periods:

Friday, July 23rd 10pm CET through Saturday, July 24th 6am CET

Friday, July 30th 10pm CET through Saturday, July 31st 6am CET

We will of course keep you updated throughout this, as well as when we’re online again.

We regret any inconvenience caused by this – but we also look forward to welcoming you back to a faster e-conomic.
