Since December 5th 2013, we have been replacing MySQL with MariaDB. This may seem like a sudden modification, but in fact, we have been contemplating this switchover for a while, and finally took the opportunity to do the seamless replacement at the same time we upgraded PHP on all our servers.
First, a bit of history: in April 2009, Oracle acquired Sun Microsystems (the company who owned MySQL). Uncertainty brewed [...]
Article written in French by Gérard Blanc (invited Funio collaborator). English translation by Funio.
“Domotics”, from the contraction of the words “house” in latin (domus) and “automatic”, is commonly named home automation, and is a trending concept that’s making a buzz. However, home automation is not really a new concept, with its first appearances dating back 1985. Even though its first words were stammered by media, it was more an appealing concept than an effective realization. A pompous [...]
160 memory modules of 8GB each. That means 1.3 terabytes, or 1 300 000 megabytes of RAM. Numbers that put a grin on most of our faces. Our beloved CEO, Sylvain Leclair said: “If you had told me, when we installed our first shared hosting server with 256MB of RAM in 1996, that we’d be adding over a million megs of it in our servers one day, I would not have believed it!” Even if Sylvain is fascinated by these [...]

Our first year’s mandate at the helm of the Funio vessel, was to renew the old management interfaces, as well as update near obsolete technologies that we had been accumulating over the past 10 years. On the other hand, 2013 was a year dedicated to the improvement of our products and services, based on the foundations we [...]

ICANN (the organization responsible for regulating the use of domain names over Internet) took us on a roller coaster ride this year, with their new regulations and procedure modifications.
This time, it’s a very important validation procedure that is affected, which could lead to the suspension of your domain name if not completed in time. Indeed, you must now validate the main contact (registrant/owner) of your domain name, no later than 15 days after certain types of interventions, or else [...]
Attention all PHP fans! We are deploying 3 new indispensable features when it comes to PHP management.
As I write these lines, certain servers already support it, and the rest of our servers will be updated in the next few weeks, allowing you to use the latest stable PHP version (5.5). You can start using this new version (once the server on which you are hosted is updated) after selecting it from the Software [...]
