Affected components: Rippling App

Timeline of updates

  1. investigating

    Users are unable to access the Rippling web and mobile apps. We will provide an update within the next 10 minutes.

  2. investigating

    Access to Rippling is restored. We are investigating a recent change that may have resulted in an increase in query load and have increased infra capacity to handle the load in the interim.

  3. monitoring

    We paused non-critical asynchronous tasks earlier today to restore site health. Although we have re-enabled those tasks again, the asynchronous task queue is still catching up. As a result, some things across Rippling - like group membership - could be stale until the remaining jobs catch up over the next few hours.

  4. resolved

    Access to the Rippling app has been fully restored.
