After some 15 years of operation, I’ve decided to shutdown the public
retail cloud\/VPS operations side of Network Presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first phase of this is to quickly shutdown the Sydney POP, with the
last day of service from Network Presence in Sydney being February
28th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I apologise for the inconvenience and I’m sorry to ask you to
please relocate your services provided by Network Presence asap and by
February 28th, as any service not migrated away from Network Presence
in Sydney by February 28th will no longer be available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Adelaide POP will continue to operate, but I won’t be offering
commercial-grade QoS and products in Adelaide from April 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Any payments made to date for service beyond February will be refunded
and please cancel any Paypal Subscriptions or scheduled payments to
Network Presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I can understand you’d like to know why I’m doing this & its because
the Sydney POP and the retail public cloud side of Network Presence is
deeply unfinancial, and has been for some time, with costs increasing
substantially recently (year or so).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’ve been happy to support it while doing mostly remote IT contracting
work around Adelaide. But my work is changing soon in 2026, and I can
no longer give the time, yet alone the funding, to operate this to the
public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’m available to discuss this with you and please let me know anything
you’d need me to action for you as I quickly stop providing these
services in my business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’ve enjoyed working with you and thank you for your business over
these years and I wish you all the best for your future endeavours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Regards,
Richard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
