January 21, 2009
On Monday, January 26th from 2am EST until 6am EST*, we will be doing scheduled maintenance on Etsy's systems. During this time period, all functions on the site will be unavailable and all Etsy users will be directed to a page that notes that the site is undergoing scheduled maintenance. For updates during the maintenance window, please see http://fix.etsy.com. (Note: Any sellers who have purchased a Showcase that would run during this maintenance window will receive a pro-rated credit for the 4-hour maintenance period.)
We have planned a number of behind-the-scenes changes and improvements for 2009 that will enhance the stability and scalability of the site but will require site downtime. To minimize the disruption to the community and allow all of you to plan as far in advance as possible, we have set maintenance window dates for the rest of 2009. Below are the planned dates (all times are 2-6am EST*):
- Monday, February 23
- Monday, March 30
- Monday, April 27
- Monday, May 25
- Monday, June 29
- Monday, July 27
- Monday, August 31
- Monday, September 28
- Monday, October 26
- Monday, November 23
- Monday, December 28
We will communicate these dates in advance each month as a reminder. While there may still be occasional emergency maintenance windows, our goal is to use these regular planned maintenance windows to proactively make changes that will minimize emergencies.
Thanks in advance for your patience during our site maintenance periods, and thanks for using Etsy!
