- simon2Q 10y agoWhich is exactly what happened and we fixed it fairly quickly, within the SLA we offer to customers. So I'm happy. I accept all of the humour on that point with a grin myself, though I must say its a nice problem to have. Thanks to everybody for reading and commenting. 2ndQuadrant is a large enough company that we have CTOs who write blogs and design stuff, we have other people who run blog websites and a variety of infrastructure, but mainly we have many dev and support staff helping customers.
