Update
We have made good progress today: all of our backup servers, compute servers and storage servers have been converted to the new data center network setup.

Unfortunately, upgrading the routers required a larger than expected number of detours and we need to reschedule to finish upgrading them. We will continue their upgrades on Friday.

No outages have been observed during the maintenance.

Scheduled
We are rolling out our next generation data center network in our backup data center.

Production environments of our customers are not affected by this.

This network upgrade includes a full rebuild of our switching and routing infrastructure and a reconfiguration of all hosts.

The upgrade will be performed on a rolling basis server by server without any impact on traffic.

However, even though we do not plan for and try to avoid any outages, but you might see intermittent loss of traffic to some of our central services (Gitlab, Hydra, Emergency Hotline, Matrix, Offsite Service Checks, and Jenkins).
