Hello,
another update about the migration.
We have moved www.shapeways.com to our new server ! :laughing:
Unfortunately, it didn't go as smooth as we had prepared, also caused a bit by combining the site update for Euro pricing with the move of the site itself to have only one downtime.
As a result, we started later, and on top of that, it took longer. Sorry for that.
But let's not forget about the positive things:
- The site is running on the new server
- We support Euro's now.
Also, the main page and galleries are getting a refreshment too. And we fixed various 'small' issues.
Back to migration:
- For next week we'll need one more downtime to move the database to it's new server too.
But then we have fully migrated our server platform to it's newer counterpart which is about 3 times as fast.
Thanks for your patience,
Kind regards, Arno
PS: On some pc's (most noticeably running windows with IE) it will take longer to refresh your DNS entry for shapeways.com. So some of you might end up in visiting the old server. For the time being we have place a redirect to the new IP on that server. You'll be able to see if you were redirected by the old server by the ip-address that shows in the URL.
