Xeround deja de ofrecer servicio gratuito

Xeround ‘The cloud database’ deja de ofrecer servicio gratuito de base de datos el 15 de Mayo de 2013. Según la nota en su página web :

We are deeply sorry to inform you that Xeround’s public cloud offering will be discontinued as of May 15th, 2013.

Xeround’s leadership forum has recently decided to re-focus the company’s effort. This means we will no longer be able to support our service over public clouds.

It is with genuine sadness that we inform you that Xeround’s service will be terminated in 2 weeks, across all of our currently active data centers.

Esto supone el fin de servicio a miles de bases de datos en las próximas dos semanas.
Algunos proveedores como Orchestra sugieren pasarse a «Amazon’s Relational Database Service» :

We’re sorry to inform you that Xeround is discontinuing it’s public cloud database offering. As a result, any free databases that you may have created via the Xeround add-on with Orchestra PHP Cloud will be terminated on May 8th, at 00:00 EDT.

So that your application doesn’t experience any downtime, it is crucial that you migrate your database before that time. Our suggestion is to use Amazon’s Relational Database Service. And one of our support engineers will be happy to assist you with that migration.

Apologies for the short notice. Xeround only announced this news yesterday. But we will do everything we can to ensure a seamless transition for you.
