Platform release process
Platform releases are deployed on a regular basis. To minimize disruption to users, deployments are scheduled outside of normal business hours for the region in which they occur.
Notification types
There are multiple types of notifications that appear before a deployment starts, depending on your deployment model.
The following sections highlight the most common methods.
Status Page
The Databricks Status Page is updated to indicate which regions a deployment impacts. When a deployment ends, the Status Page is updated to show normal operation. See Status Page.
Status Page automatic notification
If you subscribe to automatic notifications, Databricks sends an alert before a deployment begins, and a second alert when the deployment has concluded. To learn how to configure your notification subscription, see Subscribe.
Example email notification
The following is an example email notification that is sent to subscribers when a scheduled deployment begins.
