    FEATURES, FEATURES AND MORE FEATURES

    Hello everybody,

    Two days left for beta and new features are already here!

    As you may have already noticed, new things have popped up on your ~okeanos Web UI. And new things are under the hood too. Let's take a quick tour:

    1. Active CPUs and RAM

    Starting today, we introduce a new, more sophisticated tracking mechanism for your CPUs and RAM that will allow you to create even more machines. How does it work?

    We now track only your active CPUs and RAM. This results in CPU and RAM usage only when your machine is running. If you shutdown ... read more

    THE ROOF IS ON FIRE

    UPDATE: Everything is operating normally. If you still encounter any problems, please let us know at support@okeanos.grnet.gr

    ---------

    Hello ~okeanos users,

    Some of you have probably noticed that your VMs were not responding for a few hours this morning. We will try to shed some light on what happened.

    This morning we experienced a failure in the cooling system of the data center housing ~okeanos. This led to physical machines hosting ~okeanos VMs shutting down automatically, to avoid permanent damage due to overheating.

    We apologize ... read more
