I am writing with information about retirement of Confluence Data Center (DC). 

We migrated the data from Confluence DC (http://confluence.uconn.edu ) to Confluence Cloud (uconn.atlassian.net/wiki) this January and made the legacy site read-only. A security vulnerability has surfaced that may affect the scheduled retirement date of June 30, 2022. We are pursuing remediation strategies that would allow us to keep Confluence DC up until June, but if this approach is ineffective, we may need to decommission it sooner. We would communicate this change in advance to you.

Please continue updating any links that you publish or share so that they point to Confluence Cloud. Links to pages on Confluence DC will break after we retire it. Any links that point to the old Knowledge Base (space IKB) are already unavailable because we removed anonymous viewing rights. Make sure to go to the public view of the new Knowledge Base (kb.uconn.edu) and find the article to get an up-to-date URL.

Please feel free to contact me if you have questions. If you need assistance, please submit a ticket to the Technology Support Center at http://techsupport.uconn.edu or by emailing techsupport@uconn.edu.

Regards,
Yi
