Updates: Google Oauth And Referrers Info

After a while we did some changes to the system. here is the walkthrough of todays upgrades and updates.



We had the oauth registration and login setuped up for a while but as it needed to be completely checked it was hidden from the users. we recently moved from our own mailer system to Mailgun mailer system, so the emaling had to rewritten. As the first Oauth service we give you the very popular google. next we hope to implement facebook which will be made public on the next year. Also we hope to make a facebook app so you can upload to BeeIMG from facebook.



Setting up a account at BeeIMG via Google is simple. If you already has a account you will be given a chance to link it. If not a account will be created and linked.



Referrers info for members was hidden due to high load in the past months. we made the system cleaner and faster. Now the data will be collected from random users and dynamic urls will be deleted to keep referrers table clean and simple. also the Referrer urls will be cleaned according to the user rank. currently only the domain and the number of urls can be seen but in the future you can view the urls too.



Image edit feature is back and the bugs are fixed. you can give titles to unverified images now.



We have already created a BeeIMG support page which is not yet made public. It was created using freshdesk. after implementing the single sign on feature which can be used to create a ticket using a BeeIMG account, the support page will be made public at BeeIMG. you can create a ticket by visiting beeimg.freshdesk.com or by sending a mail to support@beeimg.com.

Stability Improvements 2019

In the first unstable issue which in November were caused by our server provider doing maintenance on our servers. Our AMS node got hanged up during the maintenance and had to be manually restarted. However the impact on the service was minimal and the maintenance on our CDG node affected our service as its where our databases is hosted. After the maintenance the db server had been moved to under performing hypervisor and started to slow down the site. We had to move the server again to a better server. Forward to December, one on of our free customers started hitting with lot of image view per second and this overloaded memory on AMS server and to redis node to fail. Making maters worse AMS server ran out of disk space. when a fail over to CDG happened the traffic overload that servers redis node and caused the service to fail. The site served 503 errors durin...

Recent Hiccups May 2016

We faced some blackouts recently, and it was because we got very popular in china. The images that was generating lot of traffic were violating our TOS, but as they were generating lot of traffic and I thought it was a good time to stress test our image delivery systems. At first we were handling the load fine. after some time our redis server start acting wired. the issue was with dumping the db to disk, but as the images were generating lot of data the redis server crashed. we started to migrate the all gif images to be served by our CDN while still collecting views data. but at some point our real time stats handling script started to fail due to redis connection issues. after that the data started to collect and the redis server crashed every time it was started. While all that was happening we noticed that our php front end started throwing errors. this was due the connectivity issues to our redis server. The image serving end do not use redis server and was not afflicted. its usi...
