Augh, no, we're fine. Donations are covering costs pretty good. I appreciate them a lot! It remains to be seen how much this next months server costs will be with the upgrades I did -- but I think I'll be fine. The servers are fine too... load balancing and dedicated servers are not even skipping a beat when it comes to the load now.

No, the issue last night is a dumber one. I increased the restrictions on my security groups/open ports last night. Everything SEEMED to be fine after the switch. The issue came around midnight when redis was disconnected for whatever reason and it attempted to reconnect to port 6379 when in fact I had only opened port 6397. It failed, crashing node, which caused the server to die and not recover.

Stupid issue, but we're back up and running now!
