During the server meeting, Wayne told us some good news that his wife was out of the hospital and back home. That is awesome! Wayne was reporting on some issues dealing with Alan's code and transitional invoices in the cart. Cory was talking with Wayne about different errors. Trying to clean things up and keep refining it (our app or software platform). They had a good light back and forth talking and questions and answers.

We spent a little bit of time talking about learning from our errors and mistakes vs just having successes. Great teachers... not always fun, but a great teacher.

They were sending emails back and forth and reaching out to clients and other developers. After that, Cory and Wayne were coordinating times to push and test certain branches of code for specific projects. Currently, we have a small traffic jam with projects being done and needing to be tested. Wayne had a good idea to use one of the other servers that used to be a dedicated box and the servers are still up but the client is not actively using that box. We could test on that box very easily and not interrupt anything. Great idea. We may start out that process by installing some server updates, testing, and then going on to the next thing (while our main testing server is being tested for another project).

We switched gears and Wayne was showing us some of his monitoring services. Just for fun, one of the servers has over 5.2 million records from the monitoring service. That has only been running for about two months on that server. That's a lot of page view and page requests. Light talks about traffic and data usage.

John and Wayne were coordinating on schedules. John reported on the discount engine. He is really glad to have that one virtually off his plate. There isn't more than a couple more hours of clean-up stuff that needs to be done. The heavy lifting, minus the testing, has already been completed. What a relief for all of us. It has been a big project. Lots of lessons learned. Cory was doing some planning on the discount engine stuff. She was flipping some user permissions on the old dedicated box to get ready for some other tests.
