Increased web server uptime via KSplice

We are pleased to announce that we have rolled out  KSplice on our our Linux web servers.

What does this offer?

When installing major updates to one of our web servers, like your home pc they often require a re-boot afterwords. On a web server this is not desirable, during the reboot your web server will be offline. We always aim to provide close to 100% uptime, so installing kernel updates etc stop us from reaching.

To solve this, we are now using KSplice on our our Linux servers. With KSplice we can install important OS updates without the need to re-boot. As a result, this will help eliminate any website downtime due to software updates.
