This website made me reconsider if 99.9999% SLA and always online is really that important for lots of websites. I used to self-host my own server in my own apartment, but gave up on that after my internet provider had their first major outage that lasted almost a week. Also I didn’t want to worry about the fire hazard, or the server going down when I was traveling etc.
But a solar powered server seems interesting, if the batteries could be made fire safe.
doesn’t every website go down when there is no power? ;)
I think the point is to run on solar energy. Being blackout resistant is not an end goal.
Edit: Ohh you’re talking about the post title lol
Only if there is no power everywhere. Some run redundancies in multiple locations.
So… You’re saying that if there’s no power the website goes down.
