Today's System-Wide Upgrade

What's this blog post about?

On January 11, 2013, Cloudflare scheduled maintenance from 21:00 - 23:00 UTC during which its interface was offline. The maintenance involved moving half a million websites to new IP addresses and rebalancing them into new pools of resources for better load distribution and protection against attacks. Despite some minor issues affecting a small number of customers, the migration was successful, making Cloudflare's network more flexible and robust.
