Maintenance reminder and updated timeline for DAIC migration to the new environment.

The migration to the new DAIC environment is progressing. Based on the latest planning, we have updated the migration timeline previously announced in July 2026.

Updated migration timeline

  • Now - 2 October: both the current and new DAIC environments are available.
  • 3 - 11 October: both environments will be unavailable due to planned data-centre maintenance.
  • From 12 October: both environments will return to service, with accounting enabled on the new DAIC environment.

Migration to the new DAIC

Users of the current DAIC can already request access to the new environment via TopDesk (Please select the DAIC-other as Contact/ Contributing group), and we encourage you to start migrating and testing your workflows where possible.

The hardware itself will migrate in stages:

  • Mid-October: approximately half of the remaining hardware in the current DAIC will move to the new environment.
  • Early November: the remaining hardware is planned to move to the new environment.

Newly acquired DAIC hardware will be installed directly in the new environment.

Documentation for both environments remains available during the transition:

Current DAIC: https://daic.tudelft.nl/ New DAIC: https://doc.daic.tudelft.nl/

Planned maintenance: 3-11 October

Both DAIC environments will be unavailable during the maintenance period. The maintenance may also affect other ICT services, including parts of the central storage infrastructure and virtual servers.

For more information, please see the TU Delft ICT announcement.

We will communicate further updates as the migration progresses.
