Apology for the Push Notification crash

Our server had experienced a linkage failure with the Push Notification Server of Apple on the 2Nov and 3Nov. More than 100,000 Push Notication of the HK Weather were not processed appropiately until 4pm today (6Nov), when the server was reacting to a new Push demand. 40,000 users had hence received a number of notifications, including the delayed ones. We are deeply sorry for that.

We promise there will be an improvement to our system, to respond to every unexpected incidents as soon as we could and assure all the information provided to be constantly accurate.

有關11月6日的Push發佈事宜

於11月2日和3日,我們的伺服器和Apple的Push Notification Server出現了連結問題,約十萬多個Push 訊息未有被處理,直至11月6日下午4時系統處理新的Push請求時才一拼發出,結果約有四萬名用戶同時收到多個延遲了的Push 訊息,為此我們深感抱歉。
我們會進一步改善系統,務求更有效處理所有突發情況,為大家提供可靠的資訊更新服務。

Service Outage

The server hosted the Hong Kong Weather script just suffer of abnormal frequent access. The CPU usage went high and fail to give further response. I am not a server admin expert. May need further investigation/study to prevent next “visitor”. Any friend can give me some hints to solve it?

P.S. The time in the log is US because the server is located in there.
