I'v added this paragraph to the article:
the servers are oversized for the load we're currently seeing. The reason for that is that we tried to solve a production issue by increasing the server specs. It didn't solve the problem, and now we can't down-size the servers without re-provisioning them ️.
- mkesper 6y agoBut as they are redundant this should be a no-brainer?
- pastage 6y agoI have found the same with digital ocean it is hard to down size but that is only true because I have so much unicorn data, and a move has become very painfull, so I'm stuck paying for 2x the storage cost. You should really learn to add new servers by provisioning them and remove the old servers. Your app seems a perfect fit for it for moving between servers.
