We are running maintenance behind the scenes during this period - see Affected Components for list of services that will be impacted by this maintenance. During this time we expect some disruption to service. We'll keep you updated as things progress.

Description of Work

We will be migrating top-of-rack inter-switch uplinks to newly deployed aggregation switches to enhance network performance and scalability.

Time and date

  • Start: 24 October 2025 at 01:00 BST
  • Finish: 24 October 2025 at 05:00 BST

Anticipated Impact

During this maintenance window, customers using shared hosting, cloud services, dedicated servers, and colocation may experience a brief service interruption of less than 60 seconds as uplinks are transitioned. No extended downtime is anticipated, and services will resume automatically once the migration is complete.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
