## Summary On February 27, 2026, at 22:46 UTC, customers using Feature Management experienced brief UI and Admin API unavailability. The issue lasted approximately 14 minutes and was fully resolved at 23:00 UTC. Feature flag evaluation and SDK operations were not impacted during this time. ## Impact * Customers could not access or make changes in the Feature Management console or API. * All other operations, including flag evaluation via SDKs, continued to function normally. ## Root Cause A configuration change deployed during a release introduced database connection errors. ## Remediation Upon detection, we immediately reverted the configuration change. We then initiated data synchronization and cleared relevant caching layers to restore normal authentication and operation. ## Action Items * We have implemented additional automated validation and safeguards to ensure configuration changes are validated prior to deployment. * We have also enhanced service health monitoring and alerting to proactively detect authentication latency and flag propagation delays, enabling faster mitigation in the future.
