Resolved - As of the current time, our Engineering team has confirmed that the issue with Serverless Inference has been resolved. The root cause of the issue was an outage with our provider, Anthropic, which affected users of Sonnet 4.6 and Opus 4.7 models. According to Anthropic's status page (https://status.claude.com/incidents/8z7l5zcy0v3b), they have resolved the outage. If you continue to experience problems, please open a ticket with our Support team. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

May 15, 01:23 UTC
Identified - According to Anthropic's status page (https://status.claude.com/incidents/8z7l5zcy0v3b), they have identified the root cause and are actively working on a fix. At this time, users may continue to experience errors when attempting to use Sonnet 4.6 and Opus 4.7 models. We will provide another update once Anthropic has implemented a fix and service is restored.

May 15, 01:21 UTC
Monitoring - As of the current time, our Engineering team is aware of an ongoing incident with our provider, Anthropic, that is impacting Serverless Inference. The outage is affecting all users attempting to use Sonnet 4.6 and Opus 4.7 models. According to Anthropic's status page (https://status.claude.com/incidents/8z7l5zcy0v3b), they are currently experiencing an outage that is causing this disruption. We apologize for the inconvenience and will provide updates as more information becomes available.

May 14, 20:46 UTC
Resolved - As of 19:50 UTC, the issue affecting the DNS service has been fully resolved, and all related services, including Let's Encrypt certificate issuance and Managed MongoDB provisioning, are now operating normally.

The backlog of delayed requests has been successfully processed, and all DNS record updates, pending certificate, and MongoDB operations should now be complete.

We apologize for the disruption this caused and appreciate your patience while our team worked to restore full functionality.

However, if you continue to experience any issues, please don't hesitate to raise a support ticket for further investigation. We'll be happy to assist you.

May 14, 16:42 UTC
Monitoring - Our Engineering team has implemented a fix for the issue affecting our DNS service and are now seeing DNS record updates successfully propagate to the edge.

As a result, Let's Encrypt certificate issuance and Managed MongoDB provisioning (including scaling operations) should resume. We are currently monitoring the systems as they process the backlog of delayed requests. Affected MongoDB clusters and certificate requests should complete their provisioning automatically.

We will continue to monitor the situation closely to ensure full stability. We appreciate your patience throughout this process and will provide an update once the issue is fully confirmed as resolved.

May 14, 15:52 UTC
Update - Our engineering team continues to investigate an issue affecting our DNS service. At this time, DNS resolution remains functional; however, new changes to DNS records are currently not being reflected at the edge.

This issue is also impacting related services. Specifically, customers may be unable to create new Let's Encrypt certificates. Regarding Managed MongoDB, customers will be able to submit requests to create new clusters or scale existing ones, but the completion of the provisioning process is currently delayed. This is due to the dependency on Let's Encrypt certificate issuance, which requires functional DNS propagation.

Affected clusters will automatically recover and complete their provisioning once the DNS issue is resolved. Our engineering team is actively working to restore full functionality across all affected services.

We apologize for the inconvenience and will share more information as it becomes available.

May 14, 13:57 UTC
Investigating - Our Engineering team is investigating an issue affecting our DNS service. At this time, DNS resolution remains functional but any changes to DNS records are not being reflected at the edge. Additionally, customers may be unable to create new Let's Encrypt certificates at this time. Our engineering team is actively working to identify the root cause and restore full functionality.

We apologize for any inconvenience, and we'll share more information as it becomes available.

During the above windows, our Engineering team will be performing upgrades to Functions backend infrastructure in the SYD1 region.

Expected Impact:

We anticipate some potential service disruptions during these maintenance windows. Function invocations may experience brief periods of elevated error rates or timeouts during node pool recycling in each region, and Apps that are configured with DBaaS Trusted Sources may see Trusted Source connectivity failures until DBaaS firewall rules are refreshed post-upgrade. We do not anticipate any impact to other non-Function components.


If you have any questions related to this event, please send us a ticket from your cloud support page. https://cloudsupport.digitalocean.com/s/createticket
