If you use Wiki Replicas to query the Commons links tables listed in
the previous message, be aware that starting today those tables are no
longer getting live updates.

The SRE Data Persistence team is working on setting up the new "x4"
section on the Wiki Replicas hosts,[0] which is expected to take
several days to complete.

In the meantime, you can already start using the following new endpoints:
- links.commonswiki.analytics.db.svc.wikimedia.cloud
- links.commonswiki.web.db.svc.wikimedia.cloud
- links.testcommonswiki.analytics.db.svc.wikimedia.cloud
- links.testcommonswiki.web.db.svc.wikimedia.cloud

These new endpoints are currently returning the same data as the old
endpoints, frozen as of today. As soon as the new "x4" section is
available on Wiki Replicas, the new endpoints will start returning
live data.

For more information, refer to the News page on Wikitech.[1]
