Amazon Timestream for InfluxDB now permits users to specify weekly maintenance windows using day-and-time formats aligned with IANA time zones, accommodating Daylight Saving Time changes automatically. This feature applies across InfluxDB 2 instances and InfluxDB 3 clusters in all supported editions and regions.

Users can configure or update these maintenance windows via console, CLI, or SDK. If no maintenance window is specified, AWS continues managing maintenance automatically. This enhancement aims to provide customers with greater control over maintenance timing to minimize disruption.
