AnimeBytes：新的服务器计划

Server Plans
Nanashi, our main site server, is already becoming all too weak to carry out her daily duties. She often cries and has been ailing for quite some time. We've all seen the random moments of pure tsuntsun, tracker errors, and unexpected site errors, and most of the time, for no real reason.

我们的站点服务器nanashi已经觉得有些力不从心了。她经常哭闹并感到疼痛。。所以我们时常看到她傲娇，各种服务器故障，甚至毫无理由大姨妈了。

We have managed to calm her nerves enough to run relativey stable for now, but it's only a matter of time before she finally snaps and just can't handle it anymore. We could rent a bigger server at a greater monthly cost, but within our price bracket? Not a chance. We've been running on the cheap since forever here at ABs, squeezing as much performance out of our meager resources as possible, and so, to jump up in (mainly) RAM and CPU spec brings us into premium territory. Nothing is wrong with this, but really, for this kind of cost, we may as well look into colocation... so we have.

我们正在努力使她平静下来使得站点运行正常，但这只是她彻底暴走之前的平静。我们也许可以花更多钱买更好的服务器，但在预算内是完全不可能了。
我们以低廉的支出维持着AB，全力压榨服务器的最后一点性能。内存的CPU的升级需要更多的钱，这无可厚非，但是在预算的前提下，我们也许只能
选择托管。。

We'd like to start raising funds for a rackmount server to colocate in a datacentre and tend to it ourselves. Although the initial cost is high, our monthly running costs will be reduced, and we then also have a much more convenient upgrade path with our hardware. The suggested build is to be a Supermicro rackmount with opteron 4100 CPU and 16GB RAM (maximum supported is 64GB) with the great gift of IPMI and KVM. More details, and a more comprehensive list of parts will follow, but we are still pricing around at the moment. With that in mind, we have come to around a £1000 target for the server build and initial payment for the colocation.

我们计划实行募捐，在数据中心搭建一个机架式服务器，并且自行处理一切。初装费很高，但是月费就会降低。然后我们就能随时自如更新硬件了。
我们计划是Supermicro的机架，Opteron 4100的CPU，16GB的内存（最大支持64GB），加入IPMI和KVM的支持。其他更详细的部分将会逐步更近，
但目前我们仍在商讨价格。我们的目标是1000英镑，用作服务器的初始投资和费用支付。


Holy moses! That's a lot of money; why's that better than renting?   喂！这也太贵了吧！租服务器不是很好嘛！
I hear you say, well, in the short term it isn't better than renting another server, but as we continue to outgrow servers at an alarming pace, we are forced into higher brackets of rental servers. None are very well balanced to our needs, which will result in either taking a server with less than optimal spec, or having a surplus of resources we don't use, and pay for...monthly. There are also upgrade costs to consider—one-off upgrades for rentals are priced like my tax bill: ridiculously high. More often than not, the only choice is to add a monthly cost for the extra hardware, making it even more expensive. With our colo, we have the one-off cost of the hardware itself, and that's it.

我知道你们会这么问。然而短期内，租另一台服务器并无优势，但我们对服务器的高度使用使得我们必须找到高配服务器。而没有任何服务器能很好的
满足我们的要求，结果就是要么租到一台性能不足的服务器，要么租到一台加上了各种垃圾功能的服务器，而且还是---月付。当然升级也是要加钱的。。
一次升级抵得上我要付的税了 -- TM的吸血！更常见的是，加钱买附加的硬件。。那样更贵。

托管的话，我们就可以一次性买到最好的东西了。


Well, what about the current server? Will this be neglected in the donations in sacrifice for the server pool?  现在的服务器呢？捐款会不会被私吞？
Absolutely not. We will have a secondary pool for the server fund, and we shall keep open record of how far we have got. We intend to manage this by having our regular donations fill first, and the surplus to go to the server fund.

绝对不是。我们将有一个服务器基金的储备，我们会不定时更新我们离目标的距离。我们计划先满足这个服务器的款项，然后再加入新服务器的捐款进度。

How about Tentacles? Isn't the code growing old too? Tentacles如何？是不是代码老了？
Our developers are focusing on a bunch of cool features and enhancements for our next major update. You can read about their projects and progress over on the dev blog; we've written a blog post to go along with this newspost, so head on over there after you're done with this newspost for a look at just one of the things we're doing for the next generation of Tentacles.

我们的coder们正在研究更多更新的功能，并计划应用于下一次的大幅更新。你将会在dev blog里读到。
我们除了发布新闻还写日记，所以就常去那里看看，了解我们下一次对Tentacles的更新。
