Maintenance for core backend database systems (cfdb)

Scheduled for Aug 29, 08:55 - 11:05 UTC

Scheduled

Scheduled maintenance is planned for Saturday, August 29, 2026 from 09:00 UTC to 11:00 UTC to upgrade core backend databases.

During two back-to-back windows, configuration write operations to the following services may be delayed or temporarily fail:
09:00–10:00 UTC — Zone & account configuration: Zone management, Zone settings, SSL/TLS certificate management, Page Rules and Firewall Rules, Load Balancing configuration
10:00–11:00 UTC — Identity & access management (IAM): User, membership, and role management, API token and credential management, OAuth, SSO, and SCIM provisioning

Existing configurations and access will remain active and unaffected. The Cloudflare network will continue to proxy requests and Cloudflare nameservers will continue to respond to DNS queries.

Service impact is expected to last up to 3 minutes within each window.

We will post updates on this page before, during, and after each window.
