About upgrades and maintenance

At TrafficPeak, we're continuously working to enhance the performance, security, and features of our platform. To achieve this, we employ a seamless and automated upgrade process leveraging Kubernetes rolling updates. This method allows us to update our systems with zero downtime for your applications.

What this means for you.

• Efficient and uninterrupted improvements. Our automated system updates your TrafficPeak clusters by gradually replacing individual components. During this process, live traffic is always intelligently routed to healthy instances, ensuring your applications remain fully available. This approach allows us to deliver the latest improvements and critical security updates efficiently.
• Updates outside standard working hours, region by region. To minimize any potential impact, upgrades are carefully conducted outside of typical working hours and are rolled out incrementally, region by region.
• Focus on stability and transparency. While we're confident in the stability of our automated upgrades, if an issue arises that affects your services, our standard support channels will be used for immediate escalation and communication.
• Our commitment to partnership. Should our upgrade approach ever require scheduled maintenance windows that involve you directly, we will ensure you receive advance notification.

We are dedicated to providing you with a reliable and cutting-edge platform, and this upgrade process is a key part of that commitment. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team.
