Instance scheduled maintenance = force.com site under maintenance?

Hello,

I've just noticed that with the starting of the scheduled Maintenance of EU0, a public Site has been set as 'down for maintenance', with the following url:

www.domain.com/cust_maint/default/site_down/maintenance.html

 

Did that happen by chance or actually the maintenance of the instance involves a stop of the sites?

Your Force.com Sites is directly served from your salesforce.com organization. Your sites availability is the same as your organizations availability. During the maintenance period your sites won't be available. You can check the scheduled maintenance windows at: http://trust.salesforce.com/trust/status/

Uhm, I think this is an issue.

It does mean that visitors - as well as crawlers - cannot access a public Site for several hours during the scheduled maintenance.

It could be fine if the Sites would not be directly served by our Salesforce org, so that at least the static contents are not offline during the scheduled maintenance or our Salesforce instance.

Don't know what that involves by a technical point of view, but the goal is securing a 24/7 access to public static contents.
