SEAS Computing is in the process of decommissioning the EECS web server, www.eecs.harvard.edu. We will provide a server hosted off premises in our virtual private cloud (VPC) in AWS (Amazon Web Services). We are building a new environment with an up-to-date software stack and operating system and will be moving only active sites from the current environment to the new one.
The current timeline for this project is:
7/20/2016 - Begin content migration to the new hosting environment for testing
8/12/2016 - Site owners complete remediation/testing of their sites
8/17/2016 - Production cut-over of new environment
Please contact eecs-web-migration@seas.harvard.edu to move your site.

- New PHP version
The new server will have PHP 5.4 instead of PHP 5.3 on the old server. Many of the changes between these version involved the removal of deprecated features. Attempted use of those will now be a fatal error rather than a warning message.
