It has been a big weekend for Eve online. The 100,000th subscriber signed up for Eve, and over 23,000 players logged on to Tranquility on Sunday. As Hellmar stated in his Dev Blog, the current server hardware is starting to show its age.
But, there's no need to fear! The new Yaaardware is here! Well, maybe not here in the office, but on its way to the data center in London. Tranquility will go live with the new hardware later this month after extensive testing.
You can read more about the installation process, testing process, and even some potential future plans in Hellmar's Dev Blog.

From last year's blogs:
"[...]Papasmurf and Dr.J are feverishly calibrating all pistons of our current cluster to focus all computing resources in the right areas so that RMR will hold the 25.000 PCU we seem destined to achieve before we manage to have the new super cluster hardware assembled, delivered, installed, tuned and tested."
From this one:
"On Sunday we had 23.178 players logged on at the same time. "
We've gotta work harder on acheving the Destiny that the old cluster is .. er.. Destined For!

You waited for someone to put in a question about the new Yaaardware didn't you... oh well, least the question got answered fast.
A half tonne of kit, ouch... hopefully it'll go a bit faster than a reliant robin though.

Excelent. Just don't do it before the 26th. Every time I set a skill going that takes as long as 30 days you guys do patches and extended downtimes forcing me to switch the skill to something temporary.
Other than that you get 5 thumbs up. Left and right hand.

More information than you can shake a stick at and the answers to all of your questions can be found in Oveur's Dev blog from last year.

Yaaaaaarrrrrrrdware. Finally, the time has come. Will Tranquility make the switch flawlessly, or will we have to sit through whine threads filling up the forum? Find out shortly, same channel, same time.

2 things I've just thought of.. first off can we get an up to date mirror on the auth server for sisi sometime BEFORE the new yaaarrrrdware arrives and secondly, what does that mean if anything for the patch that was slated for mid-Feb (a weeks time) that was going to be rolled out at the same time as the yaaarrrdware?
