Always Available.

The cubetree service has become core to how many companies and teams run their business. It's become critical that the cubetree site is available regardless of natural disaster or regional Internet outage.

To provide that quality of service, this week we've upgraded our underlying technology stack to run the site even when unexpected disasters strike.

Disaster Recovery Means Always Available

Websites are physically hosted in data centers. Many web sites can only be hosted in one data center and if that data center is disabled (see Godzilla), the service is no longer available on the Internet.

Disaster Recovery (or "DR") is a way of adding reliability to hosted services by delivered the service from multiple data centers.

This week we upgraded our underlying technology and processes to support DR and deliver our service from multiple data centers. This improvement allows us to deliver the service even if a disaster removes one data center from having access to the Internet.

Users won't see any change and cubetree will continue to run as they'd expect. The improvement is that the next time there is a large Internet outage, the cubetree service will continue to function.

Trusted Company Program

Every week we release a set of features as Generally Available (GA) to all of the companies which use cubetree. For example, TechCrunch'sDaniel Brusilovsky recently wrote about our latest feature moving to being GA.

Each week we also make a set of beta features exclusively available to set of "Trusted Companies." Trusted Companies get early access to features and their feedback shapes the product design before it is made available to everyone.

We are currently working on some large features, similar in scale to the group chat, and we are expanding the Trusted Company program to get more feedback. If your company would like to join the Trusted Company group, please send us an email to support@cubetree.com.
