A WebMaster’s view of Eclipse.org

Rants, praise and observations related to the technical and psychological challenges of running servers for a pretty busy site.

It happens to them too!

My trusty left wingman Karl (my right wingman being Matt) blogged about a series of outages we’ve had this weekend due to hardware issues we’ve been having. I sighed in relief when, early tonight, I got this *twice* while trying to log into hotmail.

The error message was intermittent, meaning they likely have a few overloaded servers in the cluster.

So it happens to the best of ‘em.

    No need to explain yourself. You guys do a great job for a generally thankless task.

    Thanks! Btw, it’s good to have a wingman ;P
