## The day of celebration, 2022-02-14
|
|
|
|
Today is the day that we put **server100** online in our data center.
|
|
Server100. Who would have thought that when we started our journey
|
|
with the Data Center Light around 2017?
|
|
|
|
Just on this Valentine's day, we have actually received 2 new servers
|
|
to support the growing storage needs of our customers, so server100 is
|
|
celebrating in the data center with server101.
|
|
|
|
## Big data
|
|
|
|
You might remember this slogan from the 2017's, "Big data" or "what
|
|
can you do if you have a lot of data". At we see big data a bit
|
|
differently. We don't ever analyse our customer data or sell it to
|
|
third parties, because we know that for every of our customers privacy
|
|
is an important.
|
|
|
|
No, at ungleich big data means "storing a lot of data". And that is
|
|
what server100 and server101 are going to do: each of them will
|
|
**provide around 400 Terabyte** of storage.
|
|
|
|
This is a bit of a special case in our infrastructure, as these
|
|
servers are dedicated to specific customers. Usually, all of our
|
|
storage is provided by our Ceph clusters, but in this case these
|
|
machines are providing independent storage.
|
|
|
|
## Kubernetes + IPv6 everywhere
|
|
|
|
They are however integrated into our kubernetes clusters so that the
|
|
actual workload is scheduled via kubernetes to these specific hosts.
|
|
|
|
As usual, the servers are running in IPv6 only networks, but have
|
|
access to the Internet via NAT64.
|
|
|
|
## Celebrating
|
|
|
|
Over the years we learned many great stories and have done many great
|
|
projects together with our customers and partners. Many of them have
|
|
turned into friends and we know the spirit of each and every project
|
|
that came to us.
|
|
|
|
In this sense we want to celebrate reaching that big number
|
|
with you and will give a 100% discount on any hosting order of 100 CHF
|
|
or more for the first month.
