Wayne, John, Cory, and I were on the server meeting. More discussions on super backend admin documentation and roles and permissions. Let's get everything recorded and then we'll figure out how we want to get it out to our guys (only to certain ones).

We then moved into discussing a small server outage from yesterday. It was Labor Day yesterday, and the servers went down (almost all of them) for 7-15 minutes at the exact same time. Not good but also not really something that happened on our end. Both Wayne and John were looking at log files, pings, reports, databases, and other resources. It seems like it was upstream of us and we responded as quickly as we were able, but it was somewhat out of our control. Servers were, in fact, up and running, we just couldn't get to them and nobody else could either during the period. They are go to look into it deeper. They already have some support tickets submitted to different entities to see what happened.

We briefly talked about updating our email server and the next steps in that process. We talked about getting some grey listing removed and see if that helps with the speed. We also went over some of the transfers from Newtek to Hostek (different server companies). We transferred a couple of servers last week. Most of our servers are now on the Hostek side of things. That has been years in the coming...

The last major subject was dealing with the need to allow for multiple databases to be connected to from the same servers. We are calling this the datasource project or world building project. It would allow a single server to have one set of primary code, but it could interact with any number of databases. Currently, the ratio is a perfect one set of code to one database. That would be expanded as we take it to the next level. Needed, but still in the planning stages. It comes down to resources and time.
