Latest update from Grafana Cloud

Following our ongoing communications regarding the complete outage in prod-me-central-1, we are now closing this incident. As noted in the latest AWS update, the Middle East (UAE) region (ME-CENTRAL-1) has suffered significant damage and restoration is expected to take several months. We strongly recommend all affected customers migrate workloads to an alternate Grafana Cloud region as soon as possible. If you have not already done so, please follow the migration steps outlined in our previous updates: 1. Create a Grafana Cloud stack in an alternate region 2. Update clients to send telemetry to the new region, if using Grafana Alloy then you can use Fleet Management https://grafana.com/docs/grafana-cloud/send-data/fleet-management/introduction/ 3. If your instance remains available and you have not configured your dashboards as code, then you may be able to use `grafanactl` to migrate dashboards https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/as-code/observability-as-code/grafana-cli/grafanacl
