Scheduled maintenance - Azure Load Balancer upgrade Global Services

Scheduled for Aug 9, 10:00 - 12:00 CEST

Scheduled

Azure will be retiring their Basic Load Balancer SKU on 30 September 2025 (Official announcement: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/updates?id=azure-basic-load-balancer-will-be-retired-on-30-september-2025-upgrade-to-standard-load-balancer).

In this maintenance window we will be upgrading from the Basic Load Balancer SKU to the Standard Load Balancer SKU with the migration tooling provided by Azure.

This will come with approximately 60 minutes of downtime during the maintenance window. The inbound and outbound IP addresses will remain the same, so no firewall rule changes are required.
