Update timeline

  1. investigating Mar 10, 2026, 01:50 PM UTC

    We are currently seeing elevated errors in connecting to some of our databases, which results in low amounts of Ingest traffic being rejected. We are looking into correcting the situation.

  2. monitoring Mar 10, 2026, 01:56 PM UTC

    We have stabilized the cluster and are monitoring the state while investigating to understand what triggered the degradation. Overall, 0.04% traffic was rejected with an error due to this degradation during the 20 minute window we were impaired.

  3. resolved Mar 10, 2026, 02:14 PM UTC

    This incident is now resolved. We are also noting that some other parts of honeycomb (the query UI) may have seen spurious failures as well during the impacted period (13:22—13:44 UTC).
