We’ve had another great competition in which our customers could win an Apple iPhone 11 Pro or a holiday for CZK 30,000 or one of 221 other prizes.
We have had our most successful year yet. We have managed to move a lot of things forward and we have moved others forward.

Last week, we signed a general partnership agreement with the first league football club FC Zbrojovka Brno and, to make matters worse, another agreement with another first league club – SK Dynamo České Budějovice.

We quietly launched the WEDOS CD (Cloud Disk) service at the beginning of last month in a test run. We haven’t even done any major advertising for it yet. It only appeared in our newsletter and we mentioned it a few times on social media. Even so, in about a month since the launch, the number of active WEDOS CDs is 777. But what we are most excited about is your interest in it and the large amount of feedback 🙂

Nine months ago, we launched the first public beta test of our WEDOS Cloud service. Despite the complexity of the service, we were able to collect enough comments and suggestions for improvement from experienced testers. In the end, we abandoned our planned public beta test and threw ourselves into nine months of intensive development …

We have done a number of experiments with oil cooling servers. Some took literally a few minutes and other times the whole project took several years to collect enough data for long-term operation. As a result of a series of experiments, our second datacenter will house all of the planned 10,800 physical servers cooled in oil baths using a giant cooling circuit. It includes a project to prove (proof of concept) that waste heat from oil cooling can be used to heat remote buildings. Of course, we don’t stop there, we still have the HUPS project 😉

After the end of the pandemic emergency measures, some of us did not return to the DC1 offices, but we were given the task of preparing the DC2 office space for occupancy and the start of test operations.
In order to improve communication and make the status of services clearer, we have prepared a new project for you – WEDOS Status. This is a clear interface where you can find the status of all our services and information about them.
Our CML (Central Monitoring Logs) system continuously collects data from all servers and other devices on our network and evaluates it in real time. This is 600 – 700 GB of data per day. It serves primarily for the purpose of tracking down errors and problems. However, we also use them for our protection, for example. But what if we made them into an infographic?
This month we have completed the modifications to our network. Over the last few years, there have been a few improvisations hastily created that would do no good in the future. As we plan to scale everything, we need to have order in such an important part of the infrastructure as the network.
