  5. postmortem Nov 04, 2022, 09:11 AM UTC

    Around 08:25 CET we started received reports from our customers that their webshops went offline or had intermittent connectivity issues. We contacted our cloud provider and they have informed us at 08:34 CET they are being targeted by a DDOS attack. At that point they were actively working at mitigating the issue but unfortunately this still caused intermittent issues for a lot of customers up to around 09:05 CET at which point we noticed everything became stable. Around 09:24 CET they confirmed to us everything was under control again, we kept the incident open for another 45 minutes to ensure we did not see any further disruptions. The engineers at our cloud provider were fortunately quick with addressing the issue so affected customers should only have seen intermittent issues minimal downtime. Should you experience any issues today please notify our support team, but for now we believe the issues to have been resolved.
