Contribution
The update ensures long-term stability and security of SNaX, facilitating easier data sharing and access for the astronomical community.
Findings
Database successfully migrated to a new server with PHP7
Security updates implemented for long-term stability
Encourages community data upload and usage
Abstract
The Supernova X-Ray Database (SNaX) was established a few years ago to make X-ray data on supernovae (SNe) publicly available via an elegant searchable web interface. The database has recently been updated to PhP7, had security updates done, and moved to a new server, ensuring its long-term stability. We urge astronomers to continue to download the data as needed for their work. Those with X-ray data on SNe are requested to upload it to the database via the easily fillable spreadsheet, making it accessible to everyone.
