  13. Investigating · Sep 21, 18:01 UTC
    We have refined the scope of customer impact and continue to work on a mitigation. Impacted Services: - Confluent Cloud Console (web UI), all regions: broad degradation. Customers may be unable to view or manage their resources in the Console. - Schema Registry, AWS us-west-2: a subset of Schema Registry clusters are unavailable. - Flink, AWS us-west-2: all running jobs are degraded, and new job submissions will fail. - Cluster Linking, AWS us-west-2: links to Enterprise clusters are impacted. - Topic operations, AWS us-west-2: unavailable for Freight and some Basic and Standard clusters. - Tableflow, AWS us-west-2: All operations are unavailable (additionally, topics utilizing the us-west-2 Schema Registry may be impacted) - Connect, AWS us-west-2: Some connectors dependent on unavailable Schema Registry clusters may be affected - Notifications, all regions: delivery is delayed. Customers may not receive notifications and alerts until the backlog clears. Confirmed not impacted: - Regular produce and consume operations on Kafka clusters are not affected. - Topic-related operations on Enterprise and Dedicated clusters are not affected. We are actively applying a mitigation. We will post the next update by 18:30 UTC, or sooner if service is restored.
  14. Investigating · Sep 21, 17:04 UTC
    We are confirming a contributing factor and applying a mitigation intended to restore Confluent Cloud services. We will post an update by 17:45 UTC, or sooner if service is restored.
  15. Investigating · Sep 21, 16:32 UTC
    We have made progress in identifying the cause of the disruption in AWS us-west-2 and are working to confirm the safest path to mitigation. Some customers in this region may continue to experience errors or degraded performance. We will post the next update by 17:00 UTC, or sooner if mitigation is achieved.
  16. Investigating · Sep 21, 16:15 UTC
    Multiple Confluent Cloud services in the AWS us-west-2 region are experiencing elevated error rates and service disruption. Impacted customers may see failed or slow requests to Kafka clusters, Connect, and Flink in this region. The Confluent Cloud UI is also degraded and visibility to clusters outside of us-west-2 may be impacted as well. We are actively investigating and will post the next update by 16:30 UTC, or sooner if we have new information.
