Re: FR24
Man munkelt, FR24 hätte die playback-Funktion vorübergehend deaktiviert, da zu viele User auf einmal die Playback-Funktion für MH17 genutzt haben und die Seite schlicht überlastet war.

Re: FR24
Ist mir auch so ergangen, als ich am Abend das Routing der Brunei noch einmal nachvollziehen wollte. Ausserdem tat sich die Ladefunktion der Airports etwas arg schwer (= wollte nicht). Okkes Erklärung erscheint mir logisch.JU52 hat geschrieben:Ist an mir etwas vorbeigegangen oder habe ich Tomaten auf den Augen - seit gestern ist bei mir die Plackback Funktion auf FR24 verschwunden!?

Re: FR24
q: FB FR24As many of you have noticed Flightradar24 has been very slow last days. Sometimes a timeout message shows up as there are too many visitors waiting to be served by Flightradar24 web servers.
Our servers have capacity to handle about 5-10 times the normal visitor numbers. Because of the very extensive media coverage (20,000+ articles according to Google News + most TV channels) after the tragic MH17 crash we have received up to about 50 times normal traffic which our servers have not been able to handle.
To increase server capacity we have turned off the global playback feature as this feature generates most server load. Playback and flight history for individual flights is still available on http://www.flightradar24.com/data/
Global playback will be turned on as soon as capacity allows it to be turned on. Also within 3-5 days we will release an updated version of Flightradar24 with several new features including faster and better global playback.
In order to avoid such problems in the future we have to decided to scale up capacity to be able to handle up to about 50-100 times more visitors than we do normally. This will take about 1-2 months to get in place.
We are really sorry for not being able to provide a stable service and we will also make sure that premium members will be compensated for the service disruption. More information about this soon.
