### Can I be notified in advance of planned maintenance?

Azure Cache for Redis publishes runtime maintenance notifications on a publish/subscribe (pub/sub) channel called `AzureRedisEvents`. Many popular Redis client libraries support subscribing to pub/sub channels. Receiving notifications from the `AzureRedisEvents` channel is usually a simple addition to your client application. For more information about maintenance events, please see [AzureRedisEvents](https://github.com/Azure/AzureCacheForRedis/blob/main/AzureRedisEvents.md).

> [!NOTE]

> The `AzureRedisEvents` channel isn't a mechanism that can notify you days or hours in advance. The channel can notify clients of any upcoming planned server maintenance events that might affect server availability.

Azure Cache for Redis publishes notifications on a publish/subscribe (pub/sub) channel called [AzureRedisEvents](https://github.com/Azure/AzureCacheForRedis/blob/main/AzureRedisEvents.md) around 30 seconds before planned updates. The notifications are runtime notifications.

The notifications are for applications that use circuit breakers to bypass the cache or applications that buffer commands. For example, the cache could be bypassed during any planned updates.

107118
- Applications that explicitly read data from replica rather than primary nodes. During maintenance on a replica node, the application could temporarily switch to read data from primary nodes.
108119
- Applications that can't risk write operations failing silently or succeeding without confirmation, which can happen as connections are being closed for maintenance. If those cases would result in dangerous data loss, the application can proactively pause or redirect write commands before the maintenance is scheduled to begin.
