  6. postmortem Apr 22, 2026, 03:42 AM UTC

    **Description:** CloudCheckr – All Regions – Inventory and Cost Collection Delays **Timeframe:** April 1, 2025, 1:00 PM PDT – April 7, 2025, 7:21 AM PDT **Incident Summary** On April 1, 2025, at approximately 1:00 PM PDT, an issue was identified affecting inventory and cost collection within CloudCheckr across all regions. During this period, some customers experienced delays in inventory and cost data collection. During the investigation, technical teams confirmed impact across US, EU, AU, GOV, and HSE regions. The issue was linked to service disruptions affecting an external cloud service provider in Middle East regions. As the incident progressed, technical teams confirmed that the issue was causing failures in discovery workflows and was also impacting billing and invoicing. For customers Technical teams monitored the environment closely while developing and validating a mitigation. A product-side mitigation was then deployed across all CloudCheckr regions to bypass the affected Middle East region on a per-customer basis when communication with that region failed. Following completion of the deployments, technical teams continued monitoring and validating service behavior across regions. By April 7, 2025, at approximately 7:21 AM PDT, recovery had been confirmed, with no remaining concerns at that time regarding data processing, billing, or invoicing, and the incident was considered resolved. **Root Cause** The incident was caused by service disruptions affecting an external cloud service provider in Middle East regions. As a result, CloudCheckr collection workflows encountered timeouts when processing customers with usage in the affected regions, which led to delays in inventory and cost data collection and also impacted billing and invoicing. **Remediation Actions** The following actions were taken during the incident response: 1. Incident Investigation Initiated: Technical teams began investigating delays affecting inventory and cost collection across CloudCheckr regions. 2. External Service Disruption Identified: The issue was linked to service disruptions affecting an external cloud service provider in Middle East regions. 3. Impact Assessment Performed: Technical teams assessed the effect on collection workflows, including discovery, billing, and invoicing. 4. Monitoring Continued: Teams continued to monitor service behavior and customer impact while evaluating mitigation options. 5. Product-Side Mitigation Deployed: A mitigation was deployed across CloudCheckr regions to bypass the affected Middle East region on a per-customer basis when communication with that region failed. 6. Recovery Validated: Following deployment, technical teams monitored the environment and confirmed recovery across all regions before resolving the incident. **Future Preventative Measures** • Resilient Regional Collection Handling: We will further strengthen its collection logic to reduce dependency on a single affected region during external service disruptions. This includes improving how collection workflows detect repeated regional communication failures and continue processing in a way that helps minimize delays to inventory, cost, billing, and invoicing activities across other unaffected regions.
