As UpdraftPlus keeps growing, and as we anticipate even faster growth after the launch of UpdraftPlus Vault, we’ve been working on a server upgrade. In case you noticed 5 minutes of down-time earlier today – that was it!
So far, our servers have been supporting half a million active UpdraftPlus sites and their users for documentation, purchases, account management and plugin updates checking. These upgrades will hopefully help us be ready for the next half million more.
When updraftplus.com began back in February 2013, it was at first on shared hosting – we grew out of that quickly. Since then, we’ve been managing our own servers with Digital Ocean, and have been very pleased. If you’d be meaning to check Digital Ocean out, then you can share the love by using our referral link – it’ll give you a free $10 in credit when you sign up for a Digital Ocean account.
