If you were visiting ARIS Community in the past hours, you may have seen a message "Access denied" if you saw something at all. ARIS Community crashed completely. Good news: This wasn't a hacker attack! There were just too many visitors accessing the page at the same time.
Today, we sent a newsletter announcing again that ARIS is now freely available for students and researchers. If you regularly follow ARIS Community, you are probably aware of that. It seems we reached a lot of people who had not seen that offer and shortly after sending the newsletter the server gave up.
I like to apologize for the inconvenience caused. Tomorrow, we will resend passwords to those users, who tried to register during the past hours so that they can get the free ARIS edition.
