Just shut it down for real (after proper early warnings), so you save on compute and no one is confused about the state, and offer data retrieval for the grace period.
Brownouts are great for API changes, but not very useful before a full shutdown.

- remram 3y agoThat's why I'm saying to take it offline. Purposefully broken service is not very valuable, can't really be sold, and yet can still be missed; it also costs you money.
