Maintenance: upcoming RecipeRadar server migration
The RecipeRadar website and recipe search APIs are currently hosted on a single home computer system, previously used a general-purpose desktop workstation and gaming computer.
That computer will soon need to be powered-down, potentially for a duration of weeks.
So the question arises: how can we keep the RecipeRadar application running during that time window?
The answer is that we are renting some temporary Virtual Private Server hosting from 123-reg.co.uk, the same company that manages the DNS records for RecipeRadar.
As a user of RecipeRadar: you should not notice any functional changes in the RecipeRadar application during or after this migration.
Because the server we are renting will have different computing resources (CPU speed, memory, network) and will be located elsewhere, you may, however, notice some differences in speed/performance of RecipeRadar.
In addition, the IP address and TLS (aka SSL, HTTPS) certificate for RecipeRadar will change.
The updated IP address for RecipeRadar will be: 37.148.205.122
The DNS B record – the webintegrity record for the RecipeRadar application that runs on your device when you use RecipeRadar – will not change during the migration, although it may be updated again when future application updates are applied.
