    Between 9:00 - 10:00 PM Pacific time, we’ll be updating the MariaDB (MySQL) database server software on all our servers from MariaDB 10.5.19 to 10.5.21.

    The MariaDB/MySQL database stores pages for WordPress and other sites that are run by scripts. Customers should not notice any difference after this change; we’re upgrading it to a more recent version simply to make sure it’s as fast, reliable and secure as possible. We’ve been using the new version on internal and test servers for some time.

    At the moment the software is updated on a server, WordPress and other database-backed sites on that server will have 30-60 seconds of unavoidable “downtime”. Beyond that one-time brief interruption in service, customers should not notice any difference to how their site works.
