Scheduled
Hello,

We will be performing scheduled updates to your Redis backing services on Thursday 3rd March between 6AM and 8AM.

We have sent emails to any organisation managers who manage a Redis backing service instance which we are going to update.

If you are using any of our “highly available” Redis plans, your users will only experience a small amount of downtime when the upgrade happens: up to a minute.

However, if you are using any “tiny” Redis plans that are not “highly available”, your users may experience up to 30 minutes of downtime.

If you want to minimise this downtime, we recommend that you upgrade these tiny instances to “highly available” plans, ahead of the update on Thursday 3rd March 2022.

Note that this will double your monthly charge for each Redis instance: from roughly £25 to £50 per month.

If you have concerns or would like more information, please email us at gov-uk-paas-support@digital.cabinet-office.gov.uk.

Regards,
Jani Kraner
