Snitch Check-in Processing

Update timeline

  1. investigating Nov 22, 2025, 05:12 PM UTC

    We are experiencing spurious timeouts receiving check-ins for Snitches. The root cause is related to maintenance a service provider is performing on our backend message bus. You may see occasional timeouts though those check-ins should still be processed normally. We are currently investigating a way to work around the timeouts.

  2. monitoring Nov 22, 2025, 08:20 PM UTC

    Maintenance on our primary message bus is ongoing with our service provider however timeouts have stabilized. We're continuing to monitor the system and get a better understanding of the problem. We're also discussing possible changes to mitigate similar issues in the future but we expect it will be a larger project to plan and implement.
