Update timeline

  1. identified Nov 12, 2020, 08:30 PM UTC

    A set of cascading events led to backends being restarted. This in turn puts a heavy load on the git service. We are working on reducing the load on the git service so that the backends can be restarted.

  2. identified Nov 12, 2020, 08:37 PM UTC

    The source of these issues was a latent bug, which quickly scaled down to 0 than back up the backends. We've reverted the faulty deploy and we are waiting for the sites to recover.

  3. monitoring Nov 12, 2020, 08:54 PM UTC

    The sites are recovering and we are currently prioritizing live sites so dev sites might take some time to recover. Thank for your patience!

  4. monitoring Nov 12, 2020, 08:55 PM UTC

    We are continuing to monitor for any further issues.

  5. monitoring Nov 12, 2020, 09:43 PM UTC

    All sites are back up. We are continuing to monitor the situation.
