Revision as of 17:49, 18 October 2009
In July 2007, CompSci.Ca started a switch from their old host Dreamhost, to a dedicated server, hosted at Corenetworks, it is to be responsible for all of the hosting needs of CompSci.Ca.
In June 2009, CompSci.Ca rented another server, to help with load balancing (among other things), this one is hosted at Server4You.
Shortly after the second server was added, Dan decided to name them, and on March 1st, 2009 poll was held to let the community decide what the names should be, the names chosen where Eclair and Lumiere. The name Eclair was given to the first server, (hosted at Corenetworks) and Lumiere to the newest one (hosted at Server4You). Since both of these servers are hosted in data centres in the US, they fall partly under the DMCA.
Together they are responsible for the hosting all of CompSci.Ca's websites, and services.
