Final post on Project Uptime. Before I go into the details of how well I fared against the original goals, here is a screenshot of the uptime of the site for the last two weeks.. Hope I can keep that number for the rest of this year :).

Recap of the original goals and their status

GOAL 

: Move to a fresh [VM](http://www.rackspace.com/cloud/cloud%5Fhosting%5Fproducts/servers/pricing/?ref=kudithipudi.org) with the [latest kernel](http://samsaffron.com/archive/2012/03/01/why-upgrading-your-linux-kernel-will-make-your-customers-much-happier?ref=kudithipudi.org)

- STATUS : This was successfully completed. Details of the install are [here](https://kudithipudi.org/project-uptime-progress-report-1/) and [here](https://kudithipudi.org/project-uptime-progress-report-2/).
GOAL 

: Upgrade to the latest version of [Apache](http://httpd.apache.org/?ref=kudithipudi.org).

- STATUS : Although I didn’t install 2.4 version of Apache as planned, I was able to get similar (or better) performance by installing varnish as a caching engine. Details of thee apache/varnish install are [here](https://kudithipudi.org/project-uptime-progress-report-5-getting-ready-for-reddit-and-hacker-news/).
GOAL 

: Upgrade to latest version of [MySQL](http://mysql.com/?ref=kudithipudi.org) and tune it for memory usage

- STATUS : This was probably the easiest part of the project. Details of the install are [here](https://kudithipudi.org/project-uptime-progress-report-3/). I didn’t necessarily tweak it for low memory usage though.
GOAL 

: Configure [cloudflare](http://www.cloudflare.com/?ref=kudithipudi.org) to serve a static version of front page, in case the server goes down. Design the static page to point people to my other digital presences ([Google+](https://plus.google.com/107691341586252309757?ref=kudithipudi.org), [LinkedIn](http://www.linkedin.com/in/kudithipudi?ref=kudithipudi.org), [Flickr](http://flickr.com/kudithipudi?ref=kudithipudi.org) etc)

- STATUS : Cloudflar doesn’t have the capability to direct static pages if the origin server is down. At least not for the free tier. I also didn’t design a simple page to host my digital presence. Will try to find a good template for it down the road.

All in all.. not bad 🙂
