Hey all,
Quick update on my end --
Elqnt is now going to be hosted out of a data center here in SF -- still on our own hardware. I was able to find space (and the proper bandwidth) to accommodate the loads I'm hoping to be able to handle.
I'd been capitulating to the idea of cloud hosting over this past week due to the in-house setup not measuring up to what I'd hoped -- not to mention the provider was not reliable enough -- but finding this space keeps things solid in the track of managing and hosting everything on our own hardware for additional control/access.
I'm really pushing to wrap up development in the next few days -- the timestamp on this should be an indication of the long hours

Getting all of the hardware setup in the data center this week set me back a couple days, but is a huge step up in stability + bandwidth.
Anyways, I'll keep everyone posted as I get ready to push it live!
Stephen
