Dear Customers,
This is to inform you that SingaporeWebHosting.com network will be down on 09 Dec 2012 GMT 8 (Sunday) from around 2PM to 8PM as we will be moving to a carrier neutral data center (Epsilon).
We will move all equipment such as routers, switches, servers and etc. from SingTel EXPAN DataCenter to Epsilon DataCenter hence we will need more time to do it right although we expect the move of equipment to be within 3 hours time.
Why the move?
In order to purchase more bandwidth at lower price in the future and have more choices of network links in a carrier neutral data center. There is a need to increase bandwidth due to the number of fibre users increasing in Singapore. If we continue to stay in SingTel (Expan) DC, we would have problems to provide normal service to our clients as the price of rack space rental and bandwidth of SingTel EXPAN DC is very high compared to other data centers and have been increasing around 15% every year, and we would have limited choice of network links since SingTEL EXPAN DC is not a carrier neutral data center.
Sorry for the scheduled downtime and inconvenience caused, and thank you for your kind understanding and continued support.
Kindest regards,
SingaporeWebHosting.com Support
