Over the weekend (08/03/2014), our network platform provider 'Performa' upgraded our IT equipment (computer & network) over to their own 100% owned machines (servers, drives, switches, routers, etc.) which is now local to their corporate office and warehouse area allowing them physical access at a moment's notice with any sign of trouble to get their capable hands on it and get the fix going immediately (rather than the former situation that had them calling a long distance technical support line, explaining, getting escalated, and awaiting a stranger technician to care enough to 'own' and fix the problem - Argh!)
According to the president of Performa/ShiftCode, AffTrack, CPAWay, and other notables) *"Every node ShiftCode/Performa is on currently consist of Dual 6 Core Xeons, 72gb ram and 1tb SSD's in an Raid 1 Array. Of course all are virtualized to protect each site. Each Hardware node also takes a daily backup to our backup deposit server where we store 7 days worth of backups for each virtual machine."
To me that will mean that data loss and downtime should most likely be a thing of the past for the ShiftCode/Performa network platform (though we continue to perform daily data backups of our own here at IncentWise)!
For those of our publishers NOT connecting via the internal ShiftCode GPT site / Performa network integration please note that since the equipment upgrade our own IncentWise postback IP has changed to 192.95.116.117
