CTO @ Caesar Groep

In the night of March 17th to 18th, 2025, at 01:00 CET, we will complete the final phase of the migration from SIDN to Caesar Groep. The last two components that require temporary downtime are the Keyshare Server and MyYivi. These systems play a crucial role in Yivi's authentication and identity management services, and we want to ensure a smooth transition with minimal disruption.

Migration Planโ€‹

To ensure a seamless transition, we have prepared the following steps:

  • Yivi App Update - March 11th, 2025
    • A Yivi App release will update the Keyshare Server endpoint from https://irma.sidn.nl/tomcat/irma_keyshare_server to https://keyshare.yivi.app.
    • The trust scheme will be changed to use the new Keyshare Server.
    • During this transition, https://keyshare.yivi.app will act as a reverse proxy to the existing SIDN Keyshare Server, ensuring uninterrupted service.
  • Final Migration - March 18th, 2025
    • At 01:00 CET, the SIDN Keyshare Server will be shut down.
    • The Keyshare database will be migrated to our new infrastructure.
    • The reverse proxy at https://keyshare.yivi.app will be removed and traffic will be routed to , and the new Keyshare Server will be brought online.
    • The DNS for irma.sidn.nl will be updated to redirect users who have not yet updated their app to the new environment.

Expected Impactโ€‹

There is no expected impact regarding the Yivi App update on the 11th of March.

There is approximately 1 hour of expected downtime for users in the night of the 17th-18th of March Users will receive errors when entering the pin in Yivi.

What can you do?โ€‹

Organizations using Yivi should take the following steps to mitigate potential issues:

  • Verify Integrations: Ensure all integrations with Yivi services continue to function correctly after the migration.
  • Inform Users: Notify your users about the scheduled downtime to manage expectations and reduce support requests.
