  1. identified Jul 08, 2025, 04:37 PM UTC

    The test services that are powered by our OpenSearch cluster are currently not accepting new index writes. This means data is still being saved to the test database, but new records and record updates (for DOIs, members, repositories, etc.) are not appearing in REST API list responses, Fabrica list views, and other places that rely on the OpenSearch index We believe we already know the issue but are currently discussing about how best to resolve. Production services are not affected and are operating as normal.

  2. resolved Jul 08, 2025, 04:58 PM UTC

    Test services are restored.
