Maintenance ended

We can confirm the shared MySQL cluster has been successfully upgraded from 8.0 to 8.4.

We're now running routine validation checks across all sites as a standard follow-up.

On 30/09/2026 between 08:00AM and 10:00AM (UK time), we will be upgrading our shared MySQL cluster from version 8.0 to 8.4.

Applications using the cluster may be briefly unavailable during this window. We will post updates here as the work progresses.
