Notice for US Ally Deployments – there has been an increase in traffic in the last 24 hours (November 18) impacting Ally's bulk, realtime, reporting and surge processing queues resulting in slower processing times. Ally and its associated components remain available, however there may be delays in processing some of these updates. Real time processing for new content items will be delayed along with report updates. Ally engineering and development teams continue to work on this as a high priority and will provide updates as processing levels return to normal.
