   **Root Cause** A gap in our DNS update process resulted in a misconfiguration of the DNS for [livekit.io](http://livekit.io), causing several A records to be overwritten. This resulted in an incorrect IP address being returned for [livekit.io](http://livekit.io). All real-time services - calls, RTC, and hosted agents - were unaffected as they operate on separate domains. We do have DNS monitoring in place, but it was not configured to page on-call. As a result, the issue was identified by LiveKit engineering after a short delay. **Timeline** * **2026-04-03 17:46 UTC**: DNS configuration change applied; resolution begins failing for [livekit.io](http://livekit.io). * **2026-04-03 17:52 UTC**: Issue identified by LiveKit. * **2026-04-03 18:15 UTC**: Root cause identified and fix applied. * **2026-04-03 18:18 UTC**: Fix fully propagated; services restored. Total duration: ~32 minutes. **Mitigations** * Enforce tighter automated guardrails around DNS updates. * Enable paging on existing DNS health checks so any future issues are caught even sooner.
