Well folks, we’re 4 hours into another Navisite networking issue. This time, the issue is unknown and communication is again very poor. Very little information is being shared from Navisite to it’s customer base and frustrations are certainly mounting. At this time, the issue appears to be limited to servers / clients that were purchased from Alabanza, I don’t have a way to see if clients outside of that network are being affected, so the reach of the outage is unfortunately unknown.
I am unsure of why such downtimes are taking place. The network operations center we were transferred to was supposed to be a highly redundant, highly available network so this outage is really very suprising. In 5 years with Alabanza, I saw one major outage, and that was due to a large underground fire. This is the second major outage from Navisite for it’s Alabanza clients in less than 60 days.
I hope that Navisite investors and those who use this company will begin asking why these issues are arising, and what will stop them from happening in the future.
