Urban10 - When you move from their Grid Service to the Dedicated Virtual do they migrate everything for you, or do you have to change all the Nameservers and transfer all the files yourself?

why so serious?

mg33, i think the issue is that their grid service IS something different than what everyone else i doing and they are having issues getting it working reliably, as evidenced by the fact that my dv is rock solid and never goes down, my old ss server is rock solid and never goes down, but my grid account is always down. if it was just like everything else i doubt it would be so unreliable.

Again?

It is a clustered system. This means the MySQL db is not on the same machine as the apache web server. They host web sites on one set of boxes and all of the mySQL for those web sites on another set of boxes.
Others are doing it. http://www.servage.net/
Cheaper for them, It makes for a slower db connection.

Bluehost is good for me.

I have about 65 sites hosted on Mediatemple.
It would cost us so much time and money to move it all over to another host.

I am with the worse host in living memory but too lazy to do fuck all about it.

Ever since the switch to GS there has been a raft of complaints and they have become less and less popular.
I never switched and am still on SS. I have had very little issues and they are still the cheapest host with the NT deal for life.

I used MT's shared hosting for a long time, before they switched to their grid service. I agree with most people's experience here that the grid service is very flakey and slow. I've since upgraded to their Dedicated Virtual hosting plan, and I've noticed a serious improvement in performance and reliability. It's not for everyone, and it does cost more, but it is better than their GS. And Mallmus, you do have to migrate everything yourself.

- Totally depends on which grid boxes you're on and/or if you've got dedicated virtual or fully dedicated, etc.pylon
