Quelbazar changes hosting

Operation is complete, and more successfully! :

Quelbazar, on the web, it is this blog, but also the Quelbazar shop. And, incidentally, this site and this one, too.

All this small world hosted on a U.S. hosting provider, until a few days ago: Hostgator has been my host for several years preferred. We can find a part of the saga of the reflections on the hosters here.

More than 5 years with the same host, so. And, little by little, the quality of service has deteriorated. With a peak in summer 2013, during the removal of their data center in Utah to improve their margins, letting me know just to a "Server Update"… Let's talk, this update: 2 weeks after a break in service of more of a day. Very ugly.

Not to mention the average response times from Europe (measured by Pingdom): 1500 ms at the beginning, and 2500 ms after change of data center. All accompanied by more frequent downtimes.

So a change of host was needed. For several reasons, for example because of the NSA, I was aiming for Europe. And I arrived at PlanetHoster.

A migration, it's complicated. Especially with sites a bit antiquated engines and a recent version of PHP. But after a few hours of hard work and support effective PlanetHoster, everything is here, and everything is stable!

Had a response time divided by two.

A small problem because some features of cPanel (the hosting PlanetHoster administration tool) returns me error messages. But, in defence of the host, I don't not reassembled them the problem.

So PlanetHoster is here:

And I just lay a real article for my blog, it's a great Moment. Vive 2014!
