Windows Server – Free MsSQL

Monday, October 10th, 2011

Over the past month we have had a number of issues on our CF3 Windows server which has caused both us and our faithful customers inconvenience. Due to this we have decided to give something back to all our customers on our Windows servers: We was going to have Microsoft SQL (MsSQL) services on our server at a chargeable add-on BUT due to the recent events we have decided to give our CF Wbase -WPro accounts free MsSQL services which will be effected immediately without any extra charges. You can confirm the number of databases and space you have on our ColdFusion Windows details page: http://www.hostmediauk.com/web-hosting/coldfusion-hosting/#fragment-2

Extra space is available at additional charges, speak to our sales team to learn more.

We hope you enjoy the free MsSQL databases and we hope to keep our servers stable & at the best level of performance.

Thank you!

Over the past few days we have been testing our new upgrades to our Railo servers in Washington and preparing for even more upgrades to the servers within the next 2 months.

The main update to the servers have been the CPU power to allow for better handling of Railo, with this increase in performance power more powerful ColdFusion & Railo scripts can be run without decrease in server speed.
