+## gitlab.hzdr.de becomes codebase.helmholtz.cloud
+{{ page.excerpt }}
+</div>
+
+## The Reason Why
+
+The [Helmholtz Cloud](https://helmholtz.cloud) 
+offers cloud services to all members of the Helmholtz Association and partners.
+This also includes a 
+[GitLab service](https://helmholtz.cloud/services?serviceDetails=codebase-hzdr)
+that is made available under the domain <https://gitlab.hzdr.de> by colleagues
+of the [Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR)](https://www.hzdr.de)
+and the [Helmholtz-Zentrum für Umweltforschung (UFZ)](https://www.ufz.de).
+Meanwhile, the vast majority of users does not come from the HZDR any longer.
+We decided to reflect this fact in the choice of the primary domain name.
+Therefore, a small contest to find a new domain name for this Helmholtz-wide
+GitLab service was initiated.
+At the end of this contest, most of the participants voted for
+_Helmholtz Codebase_ and <https://codebase.helmholtz.cloud>, respectively,
+as the successors of the previous service and domain name.
+
+## The New Domain
+
+The Helmholtz GitLab has already been referred to as the **Helmholtz Codebase**
+for quite a while now.
+At the moment, you can already access the service via <https://codebase.helmholtz.cloud>.
+It will be redirected to <https://gitlab.hzdr.de>.
+
+On **November 11th, 2022** these domains and redirects will be
+swapped to make the Helmholtz Codebase available under its new
+primary domain <https://codebase.helmholtz.cloud>.
+
+## Which Changes Do the Users Face?
+
+On November 11th, 2022, all users will automatically be redirected from
+<https://gitlab.hzdr.de> to <https://codebase.helmholtz.cloud>.
+Apart from that, nothing else changes for the users, except for the need to
+log in once again.
+
+## What if ...?
+
+In case you are facing issues with the new domain name or the redirect, please
+let us know.
+In that case, please contact our HIFIS Support via <support@hifis.net>, or
+the [contact form]({% link contact.md %}).
+Thank you very much!
+
+Happy collaboration and happy coding!
