## Timeline of updates

- **investigating** 2026-09-24 10:59 UTC: We detected some degradation in the eu-west-1 region due to a metadata database failure. The team is looking into it, and we'll update you with more information soon.
- **identified** 2026-09-24 11:29 UTC: The root cause was identified. A major traffic spike hit an endpoint with synchronous metadata database queries, affecting some applications' performance and causing a cascading database failure, which has already recovered. A fix is being deployed and should restore the region's performance.
- **monitoring** 2026-09-24 11:47 UTC: The fix is rolled out, and everything is back to normal. We keep monitoring to ensure everything works as expected.
- **resolved** 2026-09-24 14:00 UTC: Since we deployed the fix yesterday everything has been working correctly.
