Server Maintenance – We will be performing several upgrades to our servers to enhance stability and performance. The maintenance is scheduled to last two (2) hours, beginning on the morning of March 6 at 08:00 AM and ending at 10:00 AM. Connectivity during this window will be intermittent and SoPlett might be offline for as long as 90 minutes.
As always, we will do everything we can to keep the interruptions to an absolute minimum.
We apologize for the short notice of this maintenance. It is critical, however, that the work be completed in as timely of a manner as possible to ensure increased stability.
Thanks – The SoPlett Team
