ModRetro is now CLOUD-BASED.
ModRetro should be faster all over the world now, thanks to the cloud service's CDN capabilities.
We have protection against numerous kinds of attacks that can occur, including full DDoS protection.
We can even track hackers and potential threats.
The new cloud service has already blocked nearly 300 threats including spammers, botnet slaves, and others.
When our server is down, cached versions of the site can still be fed by the cloud.
If someone tries to DDoS us, not only will they fail, we'll have all their information, all logged automatically.
We can manage and track things like Hotlinking, outgoing links, referrals, etc.
Not to mention full Google Analytics.
We should see a huge reduction in bandwidth usage, CPU usage, down times, and page-load times.
Since the cloud-service was initialized, we have cut our bandwidth usage nearly in half, and the number of requests from the server has been cut down by more than 60%.

Neat. Was it done through host-gator or was it third party?

We are still with Hostgator, however the cloud service is being provided by a third party.

Irrelephant, Is it just me or is the "cloud" often represented as a metallic bubble/cloud like shape of some sort?
