    The issue affecting our Pingdom metrics integration has been fully resolved. The root cause was an unannounced security change to Pingdom's API that disrupted our integration and triggered incorrect metric failure notifications. We have implemented the necessary changes to restore compatibility, and all Pingdom metrics are now functioning normally. Additionally, we've improved our internal monitoring and early warning systems to help detect similar issues sooner in the future.
