Hello 2013!
Change is coming to the web hosting infrastructure at ROCKHOST.COM. The rumors are true. The subtle hints were no accident. ROCKHOST.COM is moving to the cloud! Over the next three months I will surely but slowly be migrating data one cPanel account at a time to the best network carrier and datacenter architecture in the country. Please take the cribs-esque style tour of Softlayer's Dal05 pods.

Here's the beauty. When hardware fails, drives, RAM, procs, you name it, virtual machines reboot on neighboring redundant components minimizing downtime to a matter of mere seconds versus hours of repair on a dedicated server. No technology is perfect, but this is cutting edge. Welcome to our new home.
Happy New Year,
