Sounds like time to move the online operation to AWS or Azure if they aren't there already. Be easier to spin up additional servers and load balance the network demand during these SFO's and scale down during normal operation.
I just spoke to Hammer at DLT. No sales on this can be done until the server is back up at least. It may even not happen then. They are still under "advisement" about when the release may be, if not when the server is back up.
This is actually some kind of double blind science experiment to see how long we'll keep refreshing...
I got to think that if the order process is this hard then the fulfillment of the orders will only be that much harder. Good luck N2s
