In progress
We've begun the process of preparing for the failover. During this time the API and Website may be unresponsive momentarily as we fail-over between our database systems. We do not expect DNS service to be interrupted at all during this window, but DNS updates may be delayed during this time.

We'll be starting in about 45 minutes as we prepare and double-check a few things before the maintenance window.

We've delayed this maintenance window until tomorrow at the same scheduled time due to some issues in preparations.

Scheduled
We need to apply some upgrades and patches to our production database and zone transfer servers to ensure their future stability and security. It's not expected to affect DNS resolution, but it will temporarily delay zone updates and secondary transfers while we perform fail-overs and upgrade systems.
