Moving Dr. Bunsen
Dec 4, 2010 (about 1 year ago)
Yesterday, I set about moving Dr. Bunsen from a data center in Dallas to a data center in London. The move went well and only took a few hours to complete. It would have took less time, but apparently there was some heavy network traffic yesterday and so it took slightly longer than expected.
I decided to move Dr. Bunsen closer to home in the hope that I will be able to maintain a stable SSH connection whilst using my mobile dongle. I do not really get a good connection with my dongle at the best of times, so I figure fewer hops will help.
Regarding the technicalities of the move, I really would not know about them. Dr. Bunsen is a VPS on the Linode network, so all I had to do was send a support ticket request and click a couple of buttons. The people at Linode took care of the rest. Linode rock!
