I currently run a Digital Ocean server on Cloudways.
I was wondering what do I do when my server exceeds the highest tier they offer?
Is it possible to do kinda a "load balance" through the API?
I run a pretty massive WordPress multi site with thousands of users.
So for example, my New York DO Server on Cloudways reaches capacity - is it possible to fire up a server in San Francisco and start using that server?

Recently our Sharepoint server 2013 database was upgraded from SQL server 2008 R2 to SQL server 2012 SP4. This has resulted in several issues.
There now two servers created in a single server farm one representing IP address and the other having host name. Both of the servers are having full set of services. Earlier it was only one server showing the host name
The search service is not running.
The Start and Stop of services on the server with IP address completes successfully, but on the server having the host name get stuck on starting or stopping stage.
Recreation of service applications like search service or user profile service also gets stuck and never complete
There are also two timer service instances, one for each machine, but starting or stopping any of them never gets completed and remains stuck.
What I want.
Only one server in the farm showing host name
All the services working i.e not getting stuck in starting stopping and service application like search and user profile working.
Server has just one application for port 80 and one for CA
This is a production server and each day 1500 to 2000 tasks are generated and similar number of workflows are run this means I cant risk outage.
Thanks in advance

Solved Search Service Issue
Stored the Search Service Application
$ssa=Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceapplication -Identity XXXXXXX
Stored Service instance
$si = $ssa.service.Instances
Noticed that the proxy for Search service application was also not created
created proxy
$proxy=New-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplicationProxy -SearchApplication $ssa
Set the admin component by
Set-SPEnterpriseSearchAdministrationComponent -SearchApplication $ssa -SearchServiceInstance $si
Noticed that Search Administration Web Service for Search Service Application was showing Stopped and Search Service Application was showing Error status, started by
$ssa.Provision()
Checked the status of both the Service Applications it was showing started
Checked the admin component by
$ssa.AdminComponent
It was showing server name
At least one of my problems was solved and my users are able to do searches. I still have to resolve other issues.
I'm trying to host a Spigot Minecraft 1.12.2 Server using Ubuntu, The server has been properly set up and is working properly, The ping however isn't really great, I am playing from India and the server VM instance region has been set to Germany-Frankfurt, I should be getting anywhere between 130-200ms latency but It's always above 300 or even 1000 at times, I did tracert using windows CMD terminal and the packets seem to go to U.S.A first and then to Germany, I asked several of my friends to ping the server and they all get the same result. How can I fix this? Is there any way to route packets straight to Germany Instead of going to the U.S first?
Made a new Instance in Mumbai Region, India, which is where I live, I'm getting 3 Ping while on the server select menu, but upon joining it jumps to 200.
I expect around 130-160 ping, which is what I get on other servers on that region, Other players who live near Germany are getting high pings, I can't make this server public with a major issue like this.
Have a look at the network map on this page: https://cloud.google.com/about/locations/#network-tab
As you can see, Google's network is not connected between Europe and India - therefore traffic has to take a detour around the other side of the world through Asia and the US.
Within a region, so from Germany to Germany and from India to India, you should however achieve low latency.
Probably you're experiencing this issue due to instance's machine type and CPU's count.
As stated in the documentation:
"Outbound or egress traffic from a virtual machine is subject to maximum network egress throughput caps. These caps are dependent on the number of vCPUs that a virtual machine instance has. Each core is subject to a 2 Gbits/second (Gbps) cap for peak performance. Each additional core increases the network cap, up to a theoretical maximum of 16 Gbps for each virtual machine".
Having so little information about your setup i cannot help you further unfortunately.
Please provide more information about your setup and your customer's needs.
For example, who will your customers be? From which country? Is this the reason why you're using an European region for your services while you live in India?
I've built a Django web app on a droplet of Digital Ocean. The app was working fine. Today, when I opened my web app, no data appeared. I had a look at the droplet (server), and I found that all data in my mongodb is lost. Especially, when I type show dbs in mongodb shell, it said:
DB_HAS_BEEN_DROPPED 0.000GB
Then I rebooted the server, and it worked again. The collections come back but only old data is available. New data, that I've been collected in recent days, is lost.
I faced a similar problem before. For that time, my process running mongodb was even turned off.
I suspect that my droplet was hacked by someone. Is that correct or that's the problem of mongodb? I also curious about security policy of Digital Ocean because when I set up a server one month ago, they sent me a message telling me that the server had strange outgoing traffic, and they locked my server just one day after setting up.
Thanks.
Set up MondoDB to listen on address 127.0.0.1 (or localhost) only so it's not open to the world.
See here for more details: https://docs.mongodb.com/v3.2/administration/configuration/#security-considerations
2 questions:
1) Do we need to purchase additional license to test mobile first on AWS?
Currently we are using the free eclipse version for the developer to test on their own macbook.
At the moment, we need to setup a server for business users to test. So we are thinking of leveraging AWS (EC2) to setup a MobileFirst Server. However according to this tutorial, we need to purchse MobileFiest Server:
This tutorial is intended for use with MobileFirst Server, which is available for purchase from IBM.
We have already purchase a license for the production server but not for the testing server.
2) Which AMI (Amazon Machine Image) should we choose to run MobileFirst server?
1) Do we need to purchase additional license to test mobile first on AWS?
In order to install the MobileFirst Server on an external server (anything other than Eclipse), you must buy MobileFirst Platform Foundation from IBM.
2) Which AMI (Amazon Machine Image) should we choose to run MobileFirst server?
MobileFirst supports Linux in general, so you should be able to use any of those. Most popular I assume would be Ubuntu.
You may also want to check Amazon's community where users share images, and you may find there someone who shares an image for MobileFirst.
I have a Django app (music streaming service) running on a free hosting account on Heroku with a Postgres database with one web dyno. Yesterday I wrote a script that uploads mp3 files to Heroku, extract meta data, then upload it the files to Amazon S3. When I'm going through this process, I get this error when I try to refresh
could not fork new process for connection: Cannot allocate memory
or
FATAL: remaining connection slots are reserved for non-replication superuser connections
When I go to postgres.heroku.com to see the statistics, here is what I have :
Plan Dev
Status available
Data Size 9.0 MB
Tables 0
PG Version 9.1.6
Created December 05, 2012 17:33
We have no users yet, in fact, I'm the only one using it at the moment. I'm sure we soon have to upgrade but I'm not sure with what to start. Should we start with the database, get more dynos, or what? I even started thinking of switching to MongoDB as the frequency of read and writing data to the database will be relatively high (incrementing the number of stars and listens per song, number of minutes listened by each user, etc etc).
Any suggestions?
