CompuVerse Downtime (compuverse.uk)

Firstly, I really do apologise! CompuVerse has been down for a number of hours now, and I'm really sorry.

I'll be 100% transparent on this, the server ran out of disk space! This sent it into a sort of "safe mode", which unfortunately took down CompuVerse.

I have migrated all image storage over to an external server with a large amount more storage.

However, even with this, just the text content and metadata for CompuVerse is still rather large.

I'm going to investigate solutions but am averse to running a DB server over mounted storage as this is very susceptible to latency and speeds.

~~By my approximations we have around 2 months' worth of disk space remaining now that Pictrs is removed. I'm looking for solutions in the meantime that will balance performance and cost effectively.~~

Edit: The PostgreSQL database has been moved. Please read https://compuverse.uk/post/277751 for more info.
