Dremio change history: Queries stuck in metadata retrieval in Dremio Cloud (EU)

Dremio Cloud (EU) queries stalled at metadata retrieval during a major incident from 2025-02-10 10:02 UTC to 2025-02-10 17:55 UTC (7 h 53 min), now resolved. Dremio reported upstream timeouts and queuing in a core indexing service, mitigated by throttling; initial analysis suggested a recent underlying infrastructure change on Google may have triggered the failure.
