Completed - The scheduled maintenance has been completed.

Oct 15, 15:00 UTC
In progress - Scheduled maintenance is currently in progress. We will provide updates as necessary.

Oct 14, 23:10 UTC
Scheduled - Start Time: October 15 15:00 UTC
End Time: October 15 18:00 UTC

During this time, our Engineering Team will be performing maintenance on an internal service, which necessitates a period of read-only access to that service.

Engineering teams have taken steps to ensure their services do not experience downtime during the read-only period. Due to dependencies on this internal service, there is a possibility that some customer-facing services may experience minor disruptions, particularly while using Marketplace Add Ons or processing App Platform builds (small delays).

Existing infrastructure will continue running without issue and no public or private networking disruption will occur.

If other customer-facing services experience any disruption, we will update this post.

If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to the Support team from within your account.

Hello,

During the above window, our Engineering team will be performing maintenance on redundant upstream electrical systems in order to improve reliability in our AMS3 region.

Expected Impact:

Power systems are redundant and we don’t expect to see any downtime, however, in the very unlikely situation that we lose power to both supplies, users may experience disruption with the following services or for a brief period:
Networking
Backups
Snapshots
Droplet create & restore operations

We will endeavor to keep any downtime to a minimum for the duration of the change.

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

Thank you,

During the above window, our Engineering team will be performing maintenance in our SGP1 region as part of network upgrades.

Expected Impact:

These upgrades are designed and tested to be seamless, and we expect minimal impact on customer traffic during the maintenance. There could be a brief disruption in inbound and outbound connectivity, lasting approximately 60 seconds, for the affected Droplets and Droplet-based services in the region. We will make every effort to minimize any such impact

During the above window, our Networking team will be making changes to core networking infrastructure to improve performance and scalability in the BLR1 region. This is a rescheduled maintenance event previously scheduled for 2024-09-24.

Expected Impact:

These upgrades are designed and tested to be seamless and we do not expect any impact on customer traffic due to this maintenance. Should an unexpected issue arise, a possible outcome would be a temporary loss of connectivity for impacted Droplets. Any impact would also extend to Droplet-dependent services in the BLR1 region such as Managed Databases, Load Balancers, App Platform, and Managed Kubernetes. We will endeavor to keep any such impact to a minimum.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding this maintenance, please reach out to us by opening up a ticket on your account via https://cloudsupport.digitalocean.com/s/createticket/.
