Does anyone know if the server login page will automatically update when the servers are up, or do you have to restart the client?

U prolly have to restart

FYI the issues are also preventing me from reaching the messaging tool for the game launcher news feed, so we'll use the forums and social media for messaging for now.

what about Discord?

One could argue that outsourcing is invariably beneficial. Your brandie new servers are instantly worth nothing the second you plug them in, and at $5/month, they'll be obsolete before you spend 10% of their cost new in rental fees.

I suspect they weren't build to scale with the massive number of core setups on modern servers. So they might be locked into older hardware with low cores with fast CPU speeds for ideal usage.

I was sitting at server selection page and it suddenly restarted bet they are restarting servers again

99.4% of all tech problems can be solved by answering two questions:

1. Is it plugged in?
2. Is it turned on?

3. Do you actually need it?

Im not sure that you can vote on that. But if you can, then I vote for that also.

Even if they open the worlds my launcher is in the middle of downloading data/surface and sound files it decided to reinstall everything.

You maintain your own infrastructure if you believe it is necessary to maintain the skillsets in the company.

Otherwise it just pays to outsource.

Maintaining your own servers is so last century. Even when you do still have some servers in your own datacenter it is a virtual private cloud. I suspect my company will eliminate their remaining datacenters within 10 years.

Cordo : "Well i know that...but.."
Software Engineer : "I'll see you Monday Cordo, not my problem"
Cordo : ". . . ."

I just hope your datacenter manager can guarantee the problem was a one-time issue...or that you're exploring other service providers to migrate to, if need be

How do you know the issue isn't outside of the data center's control? Such as a power outage? Or a construction company cutting a cord? Etc? What basis are you going off of to make the assumption that this is SSG's or their data center's fault?
