RIP: Puppeteers Finnish website

January 18, 2021 

Today was a special day. Our Finnish website went to greener pastures after having spent its golden months serving permanent HTTP redirects to our current website while having been taken our of our Terraform codebase. It is customary to speak a few words in occasions like this, so here we go.

"Beloved www.puppeteers.fi. You were a well-liked website that brought us our first customer. Occasionally you were down because MySQL innodb_buffer_pool_size was set too low. Or because overall system memory went too low and the OOM killer broke you. But we cannot blame you for that - it was just us trying to spare some €€€ that caused all that. You served us well, but it was time to finally move on."
