Google Cloud Staffage takes popular places down
Although Google Cloud said the power started at 1 p.m. 11:46 PT, Cloudflare also experienced disturbances from 11:19 pt, where he accused Google Cloud of the problems.
Among the affected popular places were Spotify, Discord, Snapchat, Character.ai, Cursor and Replit. Downdetector also shows spikes in the number of complaints from users trying to access some Google services, such as Google Maps and YouTube.
According to the power interruption, some work area apps such as Drive, Docs and Meet were also affected by the power cut.
“We are deeply bored of the impact of all our users and their customers that this service disorder/power interruption has caused. Companies big and small trust Google Cloud with your workloads and we will do better,” the company wrote in its Mini Incident Report.
The report accuses an invalid automated quota update to Google Cloud’s API control system of power interruption and is almost full improvement within two hours. However, some delays in restoration continued: “Several products had moderately remaining influence (eg Backlogs) for up to an hour after the primary problem was mitigated and a small number asked for it.”
A full log of the incident is available on Google Cloud’s status website and the company has promised a full report to follow.
