ADR Direct

Recently, the Alliance migrated its Internet connection from two T1s to a 10 MB connection on the Front Range GigaPop’s uPop service, and in the process switched IP addresses for its 20+ servers. All things considered, the move went very smoothly and connectivity performance has exponentially improved. The ADR service experienced one small hiccup in the migration, as an unrelated switch malfunction slowed performance down significantly for all ADR “reads and writes” and initially left us scratching our heads about why the ADR service slowed down when everything else sped up! With a “switch work around” in place, we are now seeing upload times of the ADR being 7-10 times faster than before the uPop migration…and are very pleased!
