    As part of moving to a new cloud infrastructure, the IETF Datatracker and related services will be unavailable starting at 1800 UTC on Thursday 20 June. The outages are expected to last no more than 4 hours; updates will be posted when availability resumes.

    The following services will transition to the new cloud infrastructure: the IETF Datatracker, the www.ietf.org website, the IETF Mailarchive, and the IMAP and rsync services.

    IMPORTANT: Please do not plan to rely on the IETF Datatracker or the affected systems during the 4-hour window starting at 1800 UTC on Thursday 20 June.

    Any service that relies on IETF Datatracker also will be affected. The following services will not be available: the IETF meeting registration system, and any interim meeting sessions that use MeetEcho integrated with the IETF Datatracker.

    The following services will be impaired, with any features requiring logging in unavailable: the IETF Notes service (editing notes will not be possible), IETF wikis, including wiki.ietf.org and chairs.ietf.org (editing wiki pages will not be possible), and the IETF Zulip service (any new connection will not work).

    OF PARTICULAR NOTE: Posting Internet-Drafts (I-Ds) to the IETF repository will be unavailable during the outage; this includes automated posting of I-Ds via the IETF Datatracker API, such as via Github actions in repositories used to develop I-Ds.

    Please see this blog post for more details:

    The blog post will be updated once this phase of the IT infrastructure transition is complete.
