Update timeline

  1. investigating Nov 20, 2025, 10:00 AM UTC

    We have detected a problem that causes slower connections (and sometimes timeout) to the MotherDuck backend. We are currently working to determine the root cause and implement a fix and mitigate. We will post an update on our progress within the next 30 minutes.

  2. resolved Nov 20, 2025, 10:38 AM UTC

    Increased customer load saturated the resources of a key component in our orchestration layer. We have increased the resources of this component, which restored the service levels to normal. We are continuing to monitor the situation.
