Planned maintenance work

To offer you fast and secure services, we regularly update our software and hardware. Software and hardware developers provide updates, which we check and carry out swiftly, especially where critical vulnerabilities are involved. In addition, we renew, exchange and extend server and network components. Of course, we aim to keep disruptions due to maintenance work to a minimum. 

To make it easier for you to organize your work, you can find an overview of all our scheduled maintenance work below.
