## Timeline of updates

- **resolved** 2021-02-02 01:42 UTC: From 4:50 to 5:05 PST Google's Cloud Storage availability dropped to 0. This caused message uploads to fail and retry. When the service became available again the upload backlog caused additional stress on parts of the service. The service is now recovered and operating as expected.

_From the vendor’s published history: only the final update text is available for incidents before Rewindex began polling this page._
