    Between 08:25 and 08:35 UTC, a subset of sites, located in the WP Cloud BUR datacenter , experienced 500 errors. The issue was caused by a recent change that led to failures under specific conditions. We reverted the change within approximately 5 minutes, and full recovery followed shortly after. Depending on the affected server, the impact lasted between 5 and 10 minutes. We have since reviewed the incident and are implementing additional safeguards to improve detection and reduce risk during future deployments.
