Macarne has provided a sponsored server to replace our current EU update servers so we can handle current traffic and near future growth. Ryzen 9950X, 128GB RAM, 2x 2TB NVMe and most importantly 25Gbps bandwidth. It’s greatly appreciated!
We use GeoDNS and round-robin DNS to distribute load across our servers with automatic failover. Ideally, we can find a good 2nd provider willing to provide sponsored/discounted 2x 10Gbps servers to cover each coast of North America. 2x 25Gbps would be great but not needed yet.
Our existing setup was 8x 2Gbps OVH VPS instances with 4 in Quebec, 2 in France and 2 in Germany. This was getting increasingly overloaded for the 4 major releases per year, and the largest one (Android 16) is coming up soon. European bandwidth usage is also around 50-60% higher.
This is great need several times per week I get update server errors
