Fly.io is currently experiencing a major incident, which began 2h ago. The vendor's full update timeline is below.
Update timeline

We will be imminently applying rolling restarts across all hosts in our fleet for a critical maintenance. Customer Machines, volumes, and MPG cluster instances on each host will be unavailable while their host reboots. Each host will be unavailable for 15 - 20 minutes during the restart, and multiple hosts in a region may be down at once. Users should expect a period of downtime or disruption for their apps, especially if they are running on a single machine. We are aiming for the highest possible uptime during the rollout, while ensuring this is completed quickly. We will provide a further update once we begin the restart process.

We are beginning the rolling restart process of all hosts, beginning with the YYZ region. Machines, volumes, and MPG instances on hosts being rebooted will be unavailable for approximately 15-20 minutes during the restart. We will provide further updates as the rollout progresses.

Rolling host restarts are beginning in all regions. Machines, volumes, and MPG instances will be unavailable for approximately 15-20 minutes when their hosts are restarted during this process. Users should expect a period of disruption or downtime for their apps during this, especially if they are running on a single machine. We will provide further updates as the rollout progresses.

Host restarts are continuing in phases across all regions. Only a subset of hosts in each region will be down at each time. We expect this process to take multiple hours to complete in full, with larger regions taking the longest to complete. Rollout phases were scheduled to minimize impact to Managed Postgres Clusters within those regions, however MPG users will likely see elevated primary <> standby switchovers during this period. We will provide further updates on progress as the rollout continues.
