We're planning to begin a core platform upgrade for our v2 platform customers this Friday, 5/29 through 6/26/2009. Due to the large number of host servers being upgraded, you will receive an individual notice with a specific upgrade window & details in the coming weeks. (with at least a week advance notice.)

The upgrade impact will be a simple reboot of your instance. (Likely 2-5 minutes of downtime.) no other impact is expected. This backend upgrade significantly enhances v2 platform performance (5-10x in some cases.) and is a no cost upgrade for all customers.

More details to follow over on the blog.
