a more explicit warning would have been good.

also, you use your production server for testing and development? Where are your test and development environments? I want my six sigma availability, as agreed in our SLA!

so you actually need at least 3 servers, with the test server acting as a back-up server...


There is a server for production, and you mention need for second for development/back-up... how does that add up to 3?


that would be the test environment. isnt that usual as well?


Generally, testing server is the same as development server, so that is still only 2. Obviously not always the case if you can do extensive load testing, and have multiple developers, etc... but with only 1 developer (ioi), the testing server is rarely different than development server. (Although there may be a separate development workstation).


ah, from what i have seen in big time SW development, there is often a specific environment that will be used for User Acceptance tests and performance tests...thats what you probably were referring to as well.

Anyways, was a joke in any case. I didnt expect that to exist with the budget ioi is working on.
