We will shortly be upgrading all MySQL databases from version 4 to version 5.
The upgrade programme will begin on 1st February 2009 and should be complete by 19th February 2009.
Your database will be taken offline for a maximum of 2 hours 30 minutes, while our engineers carry out the upgrade. This will take place overnight (UK time) and we will provide you with notice by email on the day of your upgrade.
