Customers are reporting sparodic database access errors while we continue to fully resolve this problem.
Update 8/30/2013 3:40PM EST: At this time all intermittent database connectivity issues appear to have been fully resolved. We have been seeing a steady decrease in the average load times for sites on the server, and also a reduction in the amount of contacts we’re receiving reporting further problems.
If you are still expericing any problems at all, at this time it would be very helpful if you can please include the exact time when you were encountering issues, and for approximately how long. As issues might be just independantly happening for certain sites instead of the entire server at this point.
