### **Dates:** Thursday, January 29th 2026, 07:04 - 08:46 UTC. ### **What happened:** Between 07:04 UTC and 08:46 UTC on January 29, 2026, customers using our US-West-1 region experienced instability with Mac resources. Specifically: * Approximately 20% of iOS simulator jobs failed to start due to infrastructure errors. * 10% of Virtual MacOS/iOS jobs failed to upload assets to S3. As a result, logs, videos, and screenshots for these specific jobs were lost and remain unavailable for download. ### **Why it happened:** Scheduled maintenance on a primary network circuit coincided with high traffic volume, which led to congestion on the backup circuit. ### **How we fixed it:** Full connectivity was restored when traffic was routed back to the primary circuit following the completion of maintenance. ### **What we are doing to prevent it from happening again:** Review network redundancy strategies and consider upgrading backup circuit capacity to ensure it can support peak traffic loads.
