Project lead: Oliver.
Others:
- Diane Patzer (<dep14> (local: dianec)
- Barry (for data and DB)
- Joanne (content)
Goal
CCMR's web service shuts down and Freed's web site continues to work correctly.
Strategy
Identify options for hosting, and characterize trade-offs, including costs and administrative overhead.
Project notes
- Can Barry provide info about the personal pages, such as (1) which personal pages have data, (2) when was the last time site updated (last write-access)? and (3) last visit of a personal page by person-driven browsing (usage stats).
If not, who should contact Keith Earl to determine if he is using or needs the data from a personal page? Anyone else?
- Oddly, <http://acert.cornell.edu> does not resolve. Must have preceding "www" for some reason. Domain name tweak would be good to do!
- Question: What is purpose of PHP and MySQL, if not just for site navigation? If that's all it's being use for, seems much easier/ cheaper ways to accomplish this
Options/ Ideas
CIT offers a web development service.
AWP: Used by EMC2 for their web site. They would recommend them.
Oliver's meeting notes, 11/28/12's mtg
Barry: PHP/ MySQL-based.
Diane works part-time.
Ideas discussed at the meeting
- CIT's LAMP service (whole, dedicated machine guessed to cost ~$110/mo?)
- Bluehost, etc.
- HostMoster (used by Barry)
There may be some personal pages. Such as for Keith Earl.
Decision at meeting:
None recorded by me.

ACERT web site (as well as ftp) could be hosted by Chemistry Department and managed by its Webmaster.
