We aim to keep the service interruption of MCIX to the minimum and will use the maintenance window only when we have changes to release. However, the objective of the maintenance widow is to ensure that MCIX users can anticipate the system outage during this period while the required maintenance tasks are performed, and most importantly, to minimize unscheduled maintenance.

How we communicate maintenance windows?

Regular maintenance windows: We won't send maintenance notifications unless we need to deviate from the regular schedule.  

Other types of maintenance: For other required maintenance, like urgent fixes, we'll notify you on MCIX login page.
