On Saturday, June 1, there was an electrical explosion that took down power to our H1 data center. Since that time, our team has been working around the clock to restore connectivity. We have been providing status updates regularly, and we have made every effort to get our customers' servers online so they can resume business as usual. The 6,000 customers in Phase 2 now have power, and we expect the remaining 3,000 to have power this evening. While we have worked some long nights and have a primary focus on restoring our customers' service, we are also continuing with our business as usual and have several great promotions currently running.
