Network Maintenance
Posted by Michael Sippey in Announcements
On our status site we have announced a maintenance window for this evening (Wednesday, December 21st) between 10:00 pm PST and 11:00 pm PST, during which time the application and a subset of customer's blogs will be inaccessible for one period of approximately 10-15 minutes.
This maintenance window is the last step in our physical move from our old data center to our new data center. While over the past several weeks we've shifted most of our network traffic (for both the application and published blogs) to our new facility, tonight we'll be removing the final physical network connection at our old facility. While there are always risks in maintenance windows, the risk of this activity is very low, and we can fall back to our original network configuration very quickly if problems arise.
As always, we'll be posting updates to status.sixapart.com at the beginning and end of the maintenance window. We appreciate your patience as we complete the move to our new data center.
Update, 11:00 pm PST: The network maintenance was completed successfully.
