Scheduled deployment of the Next Europa IT Platform version 2.5.125.

Dear Next Europa/Multisite Drupal users,

The production environment will have limited availability on Monday, 14 January, between 18:00-21:00.

More details on the changes can be found in the release notes attached to this email.

• Prior to the deployment of the latest version to production, a playground environment will be released on 10 January (14:00 - 17:00), where you can review the release. Should you detect any issues, please report them to europamanagement@ec.europa.eu.
• During the deployment, a short downtime of between 5 and 10 minutes is expected for each site.
• Due to the batch update procedure, no specific timeline for individual sites can be provided. We recommend that during this period (18:00 – 21:00), editors refrain from working on their website as they may experience issues while saving data that will result in work being lost.
• After the deployment our team will run some manual checks. If any issues are detected we will roll-back the deployment to the previous version. Please contact europamanagement@ec.europa.eu support if you experience any issues after the deployment.
   

Best regards,
The Next Europa IT Platform Team.
