New AMD Opteron 6136 and 6128 Options

The AMD Opteron 6134 dedicated server option is no longer available due to CPU availability through our normal channels. In its place we now have two new single-socket 8-core dedicated server options: the AMD Opteron 6136 2.4GHz and Opteron 6128 2.0GHz. Any orders in progress for a 6134 will automatically upgraded to a 6136 at no cost.

Mail/DNS “Professional” Service Level Changes

We’re modifying the “Professional” level of our Mail/DNS service lineup:

  • Professional will be repriced to $149/mo.
  • Professional Plus has been discontinued.

All customers that have existing Professional level services will remain unchanged as long as it continues to be renewed on time, including service levels that have been discontinued. However, as of this announcement we are no longer accepting new subscriptions to the discontinued Professional Plus.

New Shared Colocation Brackets

We’ve split our shared colocation offering into two brackets: “small” between 1U to 5U and “large” between 6U to 10U. The monthly pricing for each U is unchanged, but the “large” bracket now includes 3Mbps of committed rate bandwidth and an extra amp of power over “small”. For details see the colocation page on our main website.

Any customers with colocations that fall into the changed bracket will have the additional resources added to their account.

New Interface Graph Options

We’ve added some new graphing options for the interface traffic graphs available to our Colocation, Dedicated Server, and Internet Access customers. Previously the account control center only displayed a 24-hour live (with 15 minute delay) graph; interface graphs are now available with as little as a 5 minute delay from live traffic and with several viewing options from 12-hours to a month.

Default 24-hour graph display. (Note the new buttons above the graph.)
The new 12-hour detail display option.
The new 12-hour detail display option of the same graph.

We’ve also added a 95th percentile line on all traffic graphs, however it’s based on the currently displayed interval, not the full billing month. As such these graphs are not used for burstable billing.

Mac Mini Colocation

We’ve added the Apple Mac Mini back to our colocation page on the main website.

Mac Mini Colocation

The original news post is here, but the quick summary is: you get space for one Mini, IPv4 subnet on a private VLAN, 3 Mbps of commit, and a remote control power outlet.

UPDATE: Minimum commit included with all colocations is now 5Mbps with 95th percentile burstable as an option.
