HTTP/2 support for all sites (completed)

Update June 13, 2018: This is complete, and HTTP/2 is now used on all websites we host.

We’ve updated the Apache web server software we use from version 2.4.25 to 2.4.33, which allows us to add support for the newer HTTP/2 protocol.

HTTP/2 is enabled for our own tigertech.net sites and a small number of our customer sites now, and we’ll be gradually rolling out this feature to all sites over the next few weeks. (We’ll update this post when that’s completely finished.)

Customers should not see any problems or downtime. We’re mentioning it here just so that customers who do notice a change for some reason will know about it. As always, don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any trouble.

Brief outage on web04 server June 1 2018

Between 5:58 and 6:04 AM Pacific time today (June 1, 2018), the “web04” server experienced a partial outage that led to some sites being unavailable or slow to respond.

The problem has now been resolved, and other servers were not affected. We apologize for the inconvenience this caused our customers.
