Primary DB Failure [Resolved]

[03:22] Dear Members, our main database experienced a critical error and had to be taken offline. Our backup was brought up to take over and we have been switching over all services to use this. Service is a tad slow still but we are working on that and will update you as we go. For now we thank you for bearing with us and the slow page response until we get everything back to full speed again. 

[04:05] Things looking a bit faster again though still not great. We will continue to track down any remaining bottlenecks. Thanks for your patience everyone. 

[08:20] The slow down was due to some code still trying to connect to a secondary server and taking a while to time out. This has been modified and we're now seeing fast load times again. Everything should now be back to normal.

Re-connecting


Concordia Alumni Connect is a great place to reconnect with fellow alumni, gain industry knowledge and share career expertise and opportunities with each other and the next generation of Concordia Alumni.

Professional Network


Trying to get back in touch with old classmates? Or to find alumni in your area or field of work? Find the connections you need to further your career or business.

Concordia Map


This map helps you see where in the country, or indeed the world, other Concordia alumni are based.

This could be useful if you are visiting an area for a holiday, on business, or completely relocating to a new place and keen to connect with others who share your experiences of Concordia!

eMentoring Platform


The eMentoring platform is designed to help alumni and graduating students connect so that alumni can advise and give guidance to Concordia alumni embarking on their chosen careers. This could be anything from a few emails or checking a CV/application, to meeting face to face or even offering work experience.

The idea is that alumni can donate as much or as little of their time as they can spare to helping those in need of a helping hand at the beginning of their careers.
