There is a Google Cloud outage that is currently affecting the London, Google location for our services. The issue is primarily affecting Virtual Services that are being run on the London, Google location. Services that are configured with that location will currently fail to start, and will experience issues when running tests against them. Our Performance tests in the London, Google location are currently functioning, but tests being run in that location could experience issues with engine provisioning. We recommend avoiding this location until Google resolves the incident. We will provide updates as we receive them from Google.
