### Why is the maintenance taking so long?

Routine maintenance delivers the latest updates to the platform and service. It's difficult to predict how maintenance affects individual apps, so notifications provide general time ranges. These ranges reflect the overall operation across all resources, not specific app-level experiences. Apps that undergo maintenance restart on freshly updated machines and continue working. There's no downtime when requests and traffic aren't served.

Platform maintenance might cause applications to be cold started on new virtual machines, which can lead to delays. An application is still considered to be online while it's coldstarting. To minimize or avoid cold starts, consider using [local cache for Windows apps](overview-local-cache.md) and [health check](monitor-instances-health-check.md).

### Are business hours reflected?

Yes, business hours are reflected for the time zone of the region. Maintenance operations are optimized to start outside the standard business hours of 9 AM to 5 PM. Statistically, that's the best time for any interruptions and restarts of workloads because there's less stress on the system (in customer applications and transitively on the platform itself). App Service maintenance is designed to minimize disruption during business hours. If any upgrades are still in progress by 9 AM in a given region, they attempt to pause before reaching critical phases. Some underlying instance movements might continue, but they're orchestrated to overlap safely and maintain site availability.

If you run your workloads in an isolated product via App Service Environment v3, you can schedule the upgrades if necessary. For more information about this capability, see the blog post [Control and automate planned maintenance for App Service Environment v3](https://azure.github.io/AppService/2022/09/15/Configure-automation-for-upgrade-preferences-in-App-Service-Environment.html).
