The down time is minimal and required for maintenance, if a developer doesn’t already account for matchmaking errors and they need to make a new message, than that’s what they need to do, its not on Roblox to fix their issue or tell the entire Roblox community when its already posted here for one, and two, there are probably only a hand full of published experiences even using this feature as of now to make a site-wide (outside of the DevForum post) necessary.

Haven’t you completely missed the fact Roblox could just return a different status code instead? Like telling developers the service is down for maintenance instead of returning an error? That would make error handling a lot easier?
It might not be on Roblox to fix their issue or let the developers community know the service is down for maintenance, but it is on Roblox to provide developers with the tools needed so they can efficiently do that themselves.
Where in the post does it state that?
Might roblox will show that screen again like when it was down
No, it’s just that MemoryStoreService will go down for a few minutes.
When servers will resetting than all games must be down and studio will also be down.
60 minutes is alot for developers working on their dreams.
That’s the whole point of MMS, things like global trading and matchmaking, the actual data is stored in DataStores but the listings are shared between servers using MMS. It doesn’t matter too much if they get reset but it annoys some people when there’s a global marketplace that gets reset, but I am assuming this isn’t a regular occurrence.
Who said server’s were restarting?
No, it will go down for a few minutes, but the window where it will happen is an hour long.
See the staff has already said that.
That just says MemoryStoreService will be wiped, nothing else. If you’re using it properly, it won’t be an issue.

MemoryStore is a fairly new service that they just added I don’t think they are many games that are using it.
Again. They’re only turning off API calls relating to MemoryStoreService, your data is safe. Nothing else will be affected. Very few games currently use MemoryStoreService anyways as it’s a fairly new Service. This won’t really change anything in your gameplay, other then potentially some game’s matchmaking being down.

I mean there is a small chance that you might lose all of your bedwars data permanently but its unlikely.
The calls will only fail for a few minutes.
MemoryStoreService had nothing to do with Roblox being down— did you even read the blog article?
Nowhere is it stated that DataStoreService will be under maintenance. MemoryStoreService and DataStoreService are two different things.

The maintenance is now complete. We had about 4 minutes of downtime for the MemoryStoreService. Thank you for your patience.
