Dec 10, 20:00 UTC
Completed - The scheduled maintenance has been completed.

Dec 10, 18:00 UTC
In progress - Scheduled maintenance is currently in progress. We will provide updates as necessary.

Dec 7, 17:43 UTC
Scheduled - Start: 2025-12-10 18:00 UTC
End: 2025-12-10 20:00 UTC


During the above window, our Engineering team will be performing maintenance on principal infrastructure in order to improve reliability of the services. Please note that existing infrastructure will continue running without issue. This maintenance impacts create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) operations in all regions.

Expected Impact:

During the maintenance window, users may experience increased latency for the following platform operations:

Cloud Control Panel and API operations
Event processing
Droplet creates, resizes, rebuilds, and power events
Managed Kubernetes reconciliation and scaling
Load Balancer operations
Container Registry operations
App Platform operations
Managed Database creation and scaling

We expect to see two periods of 10 second impact, for a total of 20 seconds within the hour window. If unexpected impact occurs or continues for longer than expected, we will provide updates via our public status page.

If you have any questions related to this issue please send us a ticket from your cloud support page. https://cloudsupport.digitalocean.com/s/createticket

Migrating from Strapi + React > Drupal

I have a client who is frustrated with their current Strapi + React setup. It seems no one explained to them that a headless approach requires more ongoing maintenance compared to a traditional CMS. Most of their content lives in Strapi and is essentially “static,” with only two pages pulling data from an external API.

They’re unhappy with their existing vendor because everything takes an unreasonable amount of time— for example, they were quoted 200+ hours just to update Strapi, which is absurd. They’re fed up and want to move in a different direction.

They want the frontend look and feel to stay the same, so I can reuse some of the existing styling. However, I’m unsure whether I should try to reuse some of the React components with minimal modifications and integrate them into Twig/Paragraphs, or simply reuse the CSS and replicate the HTML markup.

I’m an experienced Drupal themer and I know how powerful Drupal is as a CMS, so I’ve never been a fan of fully headless builds for brochure-type sites like this one.

So I see three options:

  1. Reuse the CSS and some JavaScript and rebuild everything using Drupal/Twig.
  2. Integrate the existing React components on top of Drupal Paragraphs.
  3. Create a fully headless Drupal implementation.

My plan is to go with option #1. It may take more time upfront, but in the long run it’s the most maintainable solution.

I look forward to suggestions and hints about the following steps.

Core Infrastructure Maintenance NYC3

Dec 9, 12:00 UTC
Completed - The scheduled maintenance has been completed.

Dec 9, 09:00 UTC
In progress - Scheduled maintenance is currently in progress. We will provide updates as necessary.

Dec 7, 08:43 UTC
Scheduled - Start: 2025-12-09 09:00 UTC
End: 2025-12-09 12:00 UTC

During the above window, our Engineering team will be performing maintenance on core control plane infrastructure in NYC3. Please note that the existing infrastructure will continue running without issue.

We do not anticipate any impact; however, there is a small possibility that control panel functionality specifically CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations may be affected during the maintenance window. All running workloads are expected to continue operating normally without interruption.

Our team will be actively monitoring the environment throughout the maintenance, and any unexpected events will be promptly communicated through our status page.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding this maintenance, please feel free to open a support ticket from within your account. We’re here to help.

Thank you,

Team DigitalOcean
