    The upgrade was successful and mastodon.social is now running on the newer database servers.

    There is a small delay in processing due to the backlog of request accumulated during our downtime, but everything should be back to real-time soon.

    We are closely monitoring the servers and will update this status once everything is back to normal.

    We will be upgrading the database systems to new hardware, as well as a new major version of PostgreSQL. The upgrade should be very quick, but some small downtime will still occur for around a minute.
