FYI: Grants.gov migration to the Cloud (September 2022)

Fri, 26 Aug 2022 08:35:36 -0400

We have received notification about the following upcoming updates in September to Grants.gov. Please see the information below. Since Kuali is in coordinated testing for this migration, it is not anticipated that any issues will arise for S2S proposals.

Grants.gov has announced that it is migrating its infrastructure to AWS (cloud). The production migration will take place during a period of extended downtime from 9/23/2022 at 12:01 AM ET to 9/29/2022 at 11:59 PM ET. Grants.gv has published information about this move and the planned downtime via a blog post. Federal grantmaking agencies are aware of the planned downtime and have provided guidance on how submission deadlines that fall within the downtime window will be impacted.
