StatusCast's engineers determined that at approximately 8:00PM EST on November 15th 2024, several of StatusCast's application servers experienced an issue that caused the response time to spike. StatusCast's infrastructure in Azure is designed to perform scaling procedures for services under duress, and for all but one of the application services in question this was done successfully restoring the service to an acceptable level of performance. The remaining application service in the EU did not correctly scale and stayed in a degraded state for multiple days. On November 18th engineers were alerted that some customers were still experiencing load time delays and at that point the last server was corrected. After this event occurred StatusCast's DevOps team began an audit of all scaling procedures to ensure that application services across our Azure operational regions adhere to a consistent scaling process and to ensure that monitoring is properly deployed to all services as having a single application service remaining in a degraded state for days is not acceptable.
