Generally these are running 24/7. However, there are rare outages because of power failures or for a couple of minutes from operating system updates. Updates are done in batches and installed primarily at night, during off-peak hours. In addition to web services, I offer gamers of Diglow Game Core some additional services.

For several months in 2005, Diglow Game Core ran random checks on its game servers for uptime rates. My server was consistently rated as running more than 99% of the time.

This server runs on a connection that is rated at 8,000kbps downstream and 768kbps upstream. However, when my ISP has extra bandwidth, my bandwidth may be boosted to 16,000kbps/1,500kbps (estimated).
