JerichoAnomaly 7 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 So basically it amounts to this: We realize this is a chance to grow Second Life exponentially but we cannot take advantage of it until most people are back to work and the chance for growth is over. Link to post Share on other sites

More likely: "We realized this is a chance for a lot of people to buy private regions they can't afford but we don't want to be stuck with a whole lot of excess hardware after they discover nobody cares about their generic club and nobody wants to buy the ten-year-old clothes from their affiliate vendors." 1 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites

That's the crux of the matter of course. Nobody who runs any kind of IT service can afford to have a ton of spare servers standing by just in case there is a sudden unexpected big surge in activity. And if that surge is likely to be temporary, they'll be very reluctant to expand their capacity to cover it. Edited July 14, 2020 by ChinRey 5 Link to post Share on other sites

Oh, is that's what's going on? I knew they had a pause on releases but didn't realize they were moving to AWS. I wouldn't hold my breath for the next year - that's not an easy task in the least... Especially if they lack AWS specific engineers - which are folks that can command a lot of clout when it comes to salary negotiations. Link to post Share on other sites

And if that surge is likely to be temporary, they'll be very reluctant to expand their capacity to cover it. Anyone who plays MMOs should know what this can look like from our side of things. Plenty of online games that used to rapid expand to meet a surge demand, and then when the surge went down to normal found themselves in a budget shortfall due to having all the equipment lying around... The move to AWS would let SL scale up and down with a lot more flexibility. Once they are on there, they can add or remove regions much easier. If we're lucky, we might see that reflected in the cost of regions... otherwise we'll see the cost savings reflected elsewhere - best case being more budget for another project or worst case for us: more payouts to investors.

The move to the cloud has been an ongoing project for quite a while now, well over a year. That has a lot to do with why they are fairly sure they'll have it finished up this fall (i.e. this winter because IT never goes as actually planned). 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Macrocosm Draegonne 174 Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Interesting remarks here, I came to the land forum to see why the land around me in horizons had quadrupled+ in sale price, and was all the sudden more filled with people than I've ever seen. I got my lots super cheap in comparison. 😁 Im excited about moving to AWS, it opens up possibilities for user customization of region capacities, sizes, performance, etc. LL will likewise have a lot more flexibility in what they can do, not just the ease of spinning up/down instances, but also we'll potentially get new types of instances. It will be interesting to see how they handle mainland evolution as well. Anyhow, I wish the best of luck for LL in the cloud expansion, and continually increasing demand to match the new goodies. Long Live SL! 💚 1 Link to post Share on other sites
ItHadToComeToThis 1,038 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 I wonder how much longer this is going to go on for, been like nearly three months. I want to reactivate my sim but annoyingly I can't. I hope its not until all services have been migrated to the cloud because this is LL we are talking about and that could be ETA 2030 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Part of the testing setup I suppose, but its cool to see it working. Link to post Share on other sites
