To coincide with Grimsby's promotion the Fishy has moved to cloud-based hosting. All requests to the old-style urls should get redirected to the new site http://forum.thefishy.co.uk. Hopefully a lot of you will have already moved to this, but if you haven't you will need to login again. If you need help with your password let me know.

Otherwise everything should be much the same, both of the forum and the main web site.

It might be a bit slower at first until all the files get cached. I'll be keeping an eye on times. I can always put another "log on the fire" if I have to.

So what's the benefit to switching to a "cloud based hosting" Rob ?

There should never be a long outage  like we had last year when the site disappeared for two days.
It's more scalable, so it can respond to usage and spin up another server if it needs it (it's not set up that way entirely yet, so it might appear slower until I get this right).
It gives me more  control over what I can do whereas the hosting company constrained me before.

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

I increased the size of the VM to see if that will help with speed. It meant the site disappeared for a few minutes.
