The Yandex Cloud platform is still operating in a limited mode. Our specialists continue restoration work around the clock. The technical support team receives an increased number of requests, so the response time can be increased. Our recommendations continue to be relevant. We recommend using alternative sites for hosting and reserving resources. The next update will be published on October 12 at 19:00 Moscow time.

As a result of the UAV attack, the infrastructure of Yandex’s data center in Vladimir was damaged. The data center’s operation has been completely suspended. There are no casualties; the relevant services are already on site and dealing with the consequences. We consider the remaining resource configuration to be unstable. The platform’s operating mode is emergency — we recommend using any other alternative disaster recovery plans. Communication channels with technical support may be unstable. The Yandex Cloud team is working to restore service operations.
