Operating system update for Dedicated Managed Servers

Scheduled for Jul 20, 06:00 BST - Jul 31, 19:00 BST

Scheduled

From the 20th to the 31st July 2026, we will be updating the operating system of our Dedicated Managed Servers. This will provide you with better resource utilisation, higher system security, and the use of current protocols (TLS 1.3). If you use a website based on HTML/JavaScript/CSS or PHP (including CMS like WordPress, Joomla, Drupal), your website will continue to work without any changes. Custom scripts and applications in Python (update to 3.13), Ruby (update to 3.3), or Perl (update to 5.40.1) must be checked for compatibility beforehand. During the transition, there will be a brief interruption of availability lasting approximately 5 to 10 minutes.
