News

The news concern Virtual Private Servers owners only.

Few of our customers know that in order to provide better services we had performed a complete daily backup of all VPSs on our servers. While that was a good idea, we regret to inform you that we have had to stop this procedure. As a result of the disc quotas increasing, the full backup started generating a high workload which consequently caused the VPSs to become unresponsive.

The Good News. This is something we've really been looking forward to, there's so much potential here. The best thing that ISPserver announced today is that we took up an amount of RAM equal to the largest and most complicated script on your system. That will help you to tune your web server for maximum performance.

Please remember that ISPserver revised his web hosting plans with increased Bandwidth and Disk space. Now you get more Bandwidth and more disk space at same price.
