We are still fine tunning it so it will take a few days until stats will be up and running. We have rewritten the mechanism used for collecting statistics. Most of the others will only need to check the “I’m not a robot” checkbox without the need to put in any words/numbers to download from our site. We had to introduce the shiny new ReCaptcha straight from Google in some specific circumstances. During peak hours servers where overloaded and bandwidth exhausted. Such misuse of our service had a disastrous impact on the performance of our site and the user experience for our users. There are people out there who abuse our TOS by bypassing our download website and hotlink protection in order to use our site as free cloud storage for their applications. We migrated to the newest version of the battle proven plupload library. The old uploader caused some nasty issues. Links are now alphanumeric and case sensitive (eg. Aaaand buckle up!!Īfter quite a long time we finally managed to put together o meaningful update. Helmets are mandatory to prevent head injuries from sudden upload/download interruptions. Unfortunately it may be a bumpy ride with us at this particular time of the day. Practicaly everyday we have to restart services around 23:00 0:00 CET to push the new patches on the production environment to iron out some bugs in the docs/videos encoding farm. We have also shredded the GlusterFS (file system) which we used to transfer files to the transcoding farm and replaced it with MooseFS/LizardFS mainly due to GlusterFS stability issues. Transcoding is fully hardware-based with use of NVDEC/CUDA(scaling via NPP)/NVENC and its performance is up by 2000% in comparision to the previous CPU based solution. All the Docs/Videos are transcoded via a bunch of Nvidia GTX1080 graphic cards to an usable/previewable format. – Today a new Docs/Videos encoding system has been put into production. – We are thinking about releasing the sourcecode of the Zippyuploader to the public, maybe we have a few dope C++ developers as users, which would like to add a few new funtions to it. If something went wrong during the update, download the Zippyuploader again from our website. The only change is related to an increased file size limit of 500MB. – Today a new version (0.0.16.0) of the Zippyuploader was released.
