Date
Event
October 4th-5th, 2021
Service fault simulation - all composite type operations will temporarily fail for a day between 11AM on October 4th 2021 PDT and 11AM on October 5th 2021 PDT.
October 18th-25th, 2021
Service fault simulation - all composite type operations will temporarily fail for a week between 11AM on October 18th 2021 PDT and 11AM on October 25th 2021 PDT.

Service fault simulation
This is a scheduled and temporary feature interruption in which all composite types operations fail. The intent is for customers who have migrated to validate that no remaining dependencies exist on composite types. If you haven't yet migrated away from using composite types, request an exemption here to be excluded from this simulation. You must make your exemption request before 10AM PDT on the Wednesday before each scheduled interruption of service.
