Cloudera Outage History

On 23rd of June, we were notified that our Consumption Dashboards were not displaying current usage data from June 19th, 2024. Upon further investigation, we identified that the pipeline that ingests data into consumption was not progressing due to out-of-memory crash errors. The issue was caught and fixed, but the catch-up of the pipeline caused a delay of 2-3 days. While the reprocessing was happening in the background, customers could still use [https://my.cloudera.com/account/usage](https://my.cloudera.com/account/usage) to get the same consumption reports. Our teams have instituted preemptive measures and refined our internal protocols to manage similar incidents proactively in the future. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and remain committed to implementing all necessary measures to prevent the recurrence of such issues.

On June 3rd 2025 our internal systems detected intermittent 504 errors on the Data Catalog service UI. ‌ The interruption was caused by Data Catalog service components prematurely indicating they were ready to handle requests immediately after a scheduled system restart. In reality, these components were still performing essential internal data updates, a process which took approximately 24 minutes. During this period, the service was unable to fully process user requests, leading to intermittent access issues and 504 errors. ‌ To prevent similar occurrences, we have enhanced our system's readiness checks to ensure the Data Catalog service is fully prepared to serve traffic. ‌ We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the service disruption. We are committed to providing a reliable and robust platform and truly appreciate your understanding.

On 3rd April 2025, there was an intermittent service disruption impacting login and CLI operations via the Management Console portal. Subsequent investigation identified the root cause stemmed from an increase in latency with internal DNS servers. In response, corrective measures were promptly taken to address the issue. Furthermore, we have implemented supplementary checks and preemptive actions to prevent similar occurrences in the future. We apologise for any inconvenience caused by the service disruption. We are fully committed to providing a reliable and robust platform and truly appreciate your understanding.

On March 12, 2025, intermittent service disruptions were experienced due to an expired certificate served by an endpoint. Despite an automated successful certificate renewal, staggered pod restarts resulted in inconsistencies, with older ingress controller pods serving the expired certificate alongside a recently updated pod. This discrepancy led to intermittent user errors. Resolution was achieved through a systematic restart of all affected components, ensuring uniform application of the renewed certificate and restoring service consistency. We have also implemented measures to prevent similar occurrences. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this service disruption may have caused. We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of service reliability and appreciate your understanding.

On January 13th, 2025, a few of our customers experienced service disruption with the Cloudera Management Console user interface, leading to customers encountering 404 and 5xx errors when navigating the console. This disruption stemmed from an unusually high volume of notification events. We have taken immediate action to handle this unexpected surge in events. We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused and greatly appreciate your patience and understanding.

On Jan 9th, Cloudera implemented a planned system change, affecting how customers accessed their CDP workloads URL's. This change inadvertently caused issues for customers who accessed their CDP workloads URL's before authenticating. Specifically, customers who had their identity provider \(IDP\) configured to expect a certain URL were experiencing authentication failures. This affected customers who initiated the authentication process from the service provider's side. Cloudera promptly rolled back the system change, restoring normal access to CDP workload URLs. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this disruption may have caused and appreciate your understanding and patience during this resolution.

On December 2, 2024, between 17:20 - 17:33 UTC, our US Control Plane experienced a 13-minute service degradation. This incident occurred during routine maintenance of our internal infrastructure, where an error caused the unintentional degradation of nodes. We have taken immediate action to enhance our internal protocols and implement preventive measures to avoid similar incidents in the future. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and remain dedicated to ensuring a seamless experience for our valued customers. Thank you for your patience and understanding

On August 29, 2024, our FreeIPA service experienced connectivity issues to our Control Plane service.
