Planned Maintenence - Sitebuilder Server Upgrade, scheduled 2 years ago

Date: 15 June 2021
Start time: 3pm UTC
End time: 4pm UTC Duration: 1 hour

To provide you with the most reliable and robust hosting environment available we will be performing final steps to migrate from our old EOL sitebuilder servers to newer supported versions.

These tasks will have a minimal client impact.

Sitebuilder clients will not be able to write/change site content during this time until the migration is complete, sites will be read-only. There will be a short minute or so where when, reconfigured the basekit load balancers to point to the new servers, that could look like services are down.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
