Real City Network sites back after flood related problems

Rain stops play

Monday, 23 July 2007

Apologies are due to all those who tried to access Real City Network sites this morning.

Unfortunately the temporary network black-out was due to circumstances beyond our control. Our data centre is located in Gloucester... and it seems that Gloucester is largely under water!

Our data centre itself was not in danger of being flooded and backup generators have ensured that power outages have not affect our servers directly. However there were still a few connectivity issues that left the data centre temporarily cut off from the rest of the world which is why you may not have been able to access the sites earlier today.

Our heartfelt thanks go to those who did manage to make it in to work in Gloucester today and helped get everything back on its feet despite the downpour. It must be hell out there...
