The incident has been resolved, and all services are operating normally.

We traced the issue to extremely large-scale DDoS traffic that caused congestion across several upstream paths. Upstream mitigation has been applied, and the affected routes have been stabilized.

We understand this disruption was frustrating, and we want to be clear that we’re doing everything we can to prevent a repeat. The network upgrades we announced earlier are being fast-tracked, including doubling our edge capacity and significantly expanding our DDoS mitigation capabilities.

Work on these improvements is already underway and being prioritized across the board. We’ll continue to share updates as additional capacity is brought online.

Thanks for your patience while we worked through this.

If you have any further questions regarding this incident, please feel free to reach out via a ticket. We’re happy to assist.
