Important Notice: WebHorizon Poland Location Closure and Migration

Yesterday night I received an email from WebHorizon about Poland location closure. Maybe some WebHorizon clients who have server in Poland need to know this. Services in Poland will be migrated to Netherland on December 18th, 2023 and might change IP Address. Below is the email:

Important Notice: WebHorizon Poland Location Closure and Migration

Dear Client,

We hope this message finds you well. We have an important announcement regarding changes to our legacy services infrastructure.

Location Closure and Migration: We are in the process of closing our legacy Poland location and migrating all services to our new flagship facility at Iron Mountain in Amsterdam.

This move allows us to provide you with better services and enhanced connectivity. We own all our hardware at this new facility.

Migration Schedule:

Date: 18th December 2023
Impact: Services will be temporarily offline during the migration process.

No Change in Specifications and Pricing:

We want to assure you that there will be no changes to the specifications or pricing of your current services. Your experience with WebHorizon will remain seamless and uninterrupted.

IP Address Change:

Please note that as part of this migration, there might be a change in IP addresses.

Following the completion of the migration on 18th December 2023, we will send out an email with the new IP addresses.

We understand that changes like these can raise questions. If you have any concerns or require further clarification, please do not hesitate to reach out to our support team.

Thank you for your continued trust.

    Just makes more sense to focus on a location with better features or popularity. It's business.

    Yeah, I understand this, what I am wondering about is close timing of those two cases. Surely just a coincidence :smiley:

  • I also got the email. I understand, that IP might change, but there is no mention if the VMs will be migrated or just recreated. Did anyone ask that already?

    I think some of the locations are just LXC containers in Hosthatch VMs

    So this may be the reason then.

    I think it might just be a coincidence with Hosthatch, unless WebHorizon uses multiple providers for PL. My server has an IP from a Mevspace subnet.

    Oh right I forgot, they switched to Mevspace for PL. They used to use HH.

  • Good god i bought a OVH vps last month

  • man, my 16$/y lxc container has been migrated so many times over the years... I think this will be #4...

  • They have migrated my VPS, and it seems offline when I try to connect to it.

    Their control panel is also down for maintenance right now.

  • Feels myself lucky now, because previously chosen a different provider for VPS from Poland location.
