Dallas Deployment

We continue to regularly deploy new hardware at our USA1 Datacenter located in Chicago, Illinois to meet growing demand and add capacity.

This month we have been out in Dallas, Texas setting up our second US deployment, USA2. This is exciting news for us as a company and means we are better able to serve our customers in this part of the world.

If you are interested in Dallas / US based virtual servers or if you might be interested in setting up an off site copy of one of your servers running in another location for disaster recovery purposes please do not hesitate to reach out and talk to us by email ( support@anu.net ).

 

Sydney Upgrades

Over a year ago we deployed our first set of servers in Sydney, Australia. Demand for virtual machines here grew quickly and not long after we transitioned what was initially a satellite operation at the request of a small cluster of clients in to a full deployment on owned hardware.

Last month, April 2018, we travelled out to our Sydney Datacenter and installed upgrades which almost doubled our capacity. We continue to expand and grow where our customers want us to.

If you are interested in Australian based virtual servers, or may be interested in setting up an off site backup of one of your servers running in another location, do not hesitate to get in touch with us at support@anu.net.

Reminder: Google Chrome soon to mark HTTP traffic as insecure

Back in February, we published a blog post informing our customers that Google Chrome, the popular web browser now responsible for almost 60% of web traffic, will be releasing an update (version 68) in July 2018 which marks ALL HTTP traffic as insecure.

This is a reminder that you must have a valid SSL certificate (the green padlock or bar that you see when browsing secure websites) covering your entire website by then or you risk loosing a large proportion of your visitors.

If you have any questions, concerns or wish to purchase an SSL certificate from us which we can install for you please do not hesitate to reach out to us by emailing support@anu.net.
