We are currently migrating OpenVZ 6 VPS's to OpenVZ 7 technology. You might notice a few minutes of downtime.

The migration involves all the Linux VPS's which are created before July 2019. Premium VPS's are not affected by this since they are using different virtualization technology.

Migrations are automatic and there is no chance of data loss.

Our new nodes have higher computing capacity with faster and more reliable storage system.
