Contentful: Increase error rates on a single delivery api shard
Timeline of updates
- resolved
We have observed a brief increase in error rates on a single shared database shard caused by a too aggressive regular background maintenance task. The operation has been stopped and API error rates are back to normal.
From Contentful’s published incident history: for incidents before Rewindex began polling this status page, only the final update text is available.
Archive proof
Rewindex commits each version of an incident it captures to a daily checkpoint, chains it to the day before, and has the checkpoint timestamped by FreeTSA and DigiCert.
How the archive is checked, and what it cannot prove.
This incident predates live tracking (October 17, 2026). It came from the vendor’s own published history, which is not covered by checkpoints.
Impact, status and times are the vendor’s own, as last archived. View on www.contentfulstatus.com (opens in new tab).
