Update timeline

  1. investigating Sep 23, 2026, 05:15 PM UTC

    We are currently experiencing control plane instability affecting our managed Kubernetes clusters. While existing application workloads continue to run normally, administrative and management capabilities are currently degraded. Our engineering team is actively working on a resolution, and we will provide updates as new information becomes available.

  2. identified Sep 23, 2026, 06:32 PM UTC

    We have successfully identified and mitigated a high-latency condition in our core storage infrastructure that temporarily impacted the responsiveness of the Kubernetes control plane. Our engineering team is currently executing a phased reconciliation and rollout process to gracefully restart the management instances and restore full functionality. Existing application workloads continue to run normally and remain unaffected.
