System update of 2024

Thursday, February 29. 2024

I''ve been way too busy with my dayjob to do any blogging nor system maintenance.

Ever since S9y 2.4.0 update, my blog has been in a disarray. This has been a tough one for me as I'd love to run my system with much better quality.

Ultimately I had to find the required time and do tons of maintenance to get out of the sad state.

Mending activities completed:

  • Changed hosting provider to Hetzner
  • Rented a much beefier VM for the system
  • Changed host CPU:
    • manufacturer from Intel to ?
    • architecture from AMD64 into ARMv8
    • generation from Pentium 4 into something very new
  • Upgraded OS into Oracle Linux 9
  • Upgraded DB into PostgreSQL 16
  • Allocated more RAM for web server
  • Tightened up security even more
  • Made Google Search happier
  • ... fixeds a ton of bugs in Brownpaper skin

Qualys SSL Report still ranks this site as A+ having HTTP/2. Netcraft Site report still ranks this site into better half of top-1-Million in The World.

Now everything should be so much better. Now this AI-generated image portrays a fixed computer system:

Did you see what the problem with s9y 2.4 was exactly? It was just too heavy for the old system, or was there something specific that misbehaved?

I just wanted more bang for the buck. New VM is soooo much faster, has more RAM, disc and everything.

Old system was ok, but dated. I wanted to have an ok system without the "but"-part.
