GitHub: Disruption with Gemini 2.5 Pro
Timeline of updates
- resolved
Between May 15, 2025 10:10 UTC and May 15, 2025 22:58 UTC the Copilot service was degraded and returned a high volume of internal server errors for requests targeting Gemini 2.5 Pro, a public preview model. This was due to a high volume of rate limiting by the upstream model provider, similar in volume to the internal server errors during the previous day. We mitigated the incident by temporarily disabling Gemini 2.5 Pro for all Copilot Chat experiences, and then worked with the model provider to ensure model health was sufficiently improved before re-enabling. We are working with the model provider to move to more resilient infrastructure to mitigate issues like this one in the future.
