We are excited to inform you that we will be making significant improvements to our web hosting infrastructure to enhance the performance and reliability of our services. The following changes will be implemented:

1. Change of Domain for Control Panel Access:
The domain for accessing the control panel will be updated from gamma.web.nodeid.net to gamma.web.graphicaluserinterface.net. The maintenance for this change will be completed today by 21:00 UTC+2. During the change, the control panel will be temporarily unavailable for a few minutes. We assure you that there will be no further downtime apart from this brief period.

Make sure to access the control panel from the new URL starting tomorrow!

2. DNS Service Discontinuation and Migration:
To improve performance and compliance with data regulations, we will be migrating all DNS services to locations within the European Union. As part of this migration, the old DNS cluster consisting of ns1 and ns2 nodes will be replaced with a new cluster consisting of four nodes located across geographically diverse locations at multiple providers. This upgrade will ensure enhanced redundancy and faster response times for your domains.

The new DNS servers to be used are as follows:

hedgehog.eu.domainresolver.net (2.58.57.186) - Amsterdam, Netherlands
bear.eu.domainresolver.net (162.19.241.180) - Frankfurt, Germany
rooster.eu.domainresolver.net (162.19.79.78) - Gravelines, France
stork.eu.domainresolver.net (146.59.126.118) - Warsaw, Poland

Please note that the old DNS servers (ns1 and ns2) will be decommissioned by the 1st of August. We do not anticipate any downtime during the DNS migration. However, to ensure uninterrupted service, we kindly request all customers currently using our NS servers to add at least two of the new nameservers to their domains now. This proactive step will prevent any potential downtime during the migration process.

Once the migration is complete, we recommend adding the remaining two NS servers to your domains and removing the old ones. By doing so, you will guarantee 100% website uptime during the maintenance period and ensure seamless operations on your end.

The decision to carry out this maintenance was prompted by the increasing load on our existing DNS servers, which led us to seek a scalable and efficient solution. By launching a new DNS cluster with geographically dispersed nodes, we can improve the reliability and response times of our DNS services, providing you with a better overall web hosting experience.

Customers impacted can expect communication with more information about maintenance to keep you informed and prepared. We apologize for any inconvenience this maintenance may cause and acknowledge that DNS changes can be demanding. Rest assured, our team is committed to minimizing any impact on your services and providing the necessary support during this transition.

If you have any concerns or require assistance with the changes, please do not hesitate to contact our support team at support@simpliservers.com.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation as we work towards offering you a more robust and efficient web hosting experience.

Best regards,
IT Team @ SimpliServers
