Final update

**Summary** Network traffic to Google Cloud originating from Delhi, Chennai, Mumbai and surrounding areas experienced intermittent periods of elevated latency and possible packet loss. **Description** Traffic rerouting from the impacted Delhi facility caused a subset of Hybrid Connectivity, Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and Media CDN customers to experience intermittent latency spikes as demand exceeded regional capacity. We completed the augmentation of out-of-region Internet Edge regional peering capacity in Chennai to provide additional load-balancing and redundancy to large ISPs in India. Service to a large portion of Internet Edge peering capacity has been restored to reduce latency in the local Delhi metropolitan area. We are now recovered and returned to normal service as of Friday, 2026-06-26 PDT. Following safety clearance, our team restored all lost capacity. We have restored capacity between Delhi-Chennai and Delhi-Mumbai and will continue to closely monitor latency deviations and packet drops. We thank you for your patience during the resolution of this issue. **Symptoms** The impacted customers may have experienced slightly elevated latency and non-optimal network routin

    **Summary** Network traffic to Google Cloud originating from Delhi, Chennai, Mumbai and surrounding areas is experiencing intermittent periods of elevated latency and possible packet loss. **Description** Traffic rerouting from the impacted Delhi facility has caused a subset of Hybrid Connectivity and Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) customers to experience intermittent latency spikes as demand exceeds regional capacity. Media CDN customers may also notice increased latencies. Initial traffic mitigations have yielded positive results for some Cloud customers. We have restored a large portion of Internet Edge peering capacity to reduce latency in the local Delhi metropolitan area. Since the last update, we have completed the augmentation of out-of-region Internet Edge regional peering capacity in Chennai to provide additional load-balancing and redundancy to large ISPs in India. Following safety clearance, our team has accessed the damaged site and is continuing to restore additional capacity throughout this week. We have optimized capacity across network backbones to increase available headroom and augmented our Delhi user-facing backbone capacity. We will continue to closely monitor latency deviations and packet drops. We will provide our next update by Monday, 2026-06-29 at 17:00 PDT. **Symptoms** Customers may experience slightly elevated latency and non-optimal network routing into Google Cloud until the affected facility is fully restored. **Workaround** There is no workaroun

Since the last update, we have completed the augmentation of out-of-region Internet Edge regional peering capacity in Chennai to provide additional load-balancing and redundancy to large ISPs in India. Following safety clearance, teams obtained access to the damaged site and will further restore additional incremental user-facing backbone capacity on Tuesday, 2026-06-23. We have optimized capacity across network backbones to increase available headroom, and augmented our Delhi user-facing backbone capacity. We will continue to closely monitor latency deviations and packet drops. We will provide our next update by Tuesday, 2026-06-23 at 17:00 PDT. **Symptoms** Customers may experience slightly elevated latency and non-optimal network routing into Google Cloud until the affected facility is fully restored.

Media CDN customers may also notice increased latencies. Initial traffic mitigations have yielded positive results for some Cloud customers. We have restored a portion of Internet Edge peering capacity to reduce latency in the local Delhi metropolitan area. Further, we are nearly finished with the augmentation of out-of-region Internet Edge regional peering capacity in Chennai to provide additional load-balancing and redundancy to large ISPs in India. We have optimized capacity across network backbones to increase available headroom. Additionally, we have augmented our Delhi backbone capacity. We have also restored additional capacity between Delhi-Chennai and Delhi-Mumbai. We will continue to closely monitor latency deviations and packet drops. We will provide our next update by Monday, 2026-06-22 17:00 PDT. **Symptoms** Customers may experience slightly elevated latency and non-optimal network routing into Google Cloud until the affected facility is fully restored. **Workaround** There is no workaround at this time.

    **Summary** Network traffic to Google Cloud originating from Delhi, Chennai, Mumbai and surrounding areas is experiencing intermittent periods of elevated latency and possible packet loss. **Description** A fire at a third-party data center facility required an emergency power shutdown of networking equipment, isolating a non-compute local Point of Presence (POP) in Delhi and reducing available network capacity in the metro area. We rerouted significant traffic from the impacted facility in Delhi to address reduced local serving capabilities. As a result, a subset of Hybrid Connectivity and Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) customers may be impacted by the routing changes made to address reduced local, latency-optimized serving capabilities in Delhi. Affected customers may experience intermittent latency spikes due to demand exceeding capacity across Indian metros and regional ISPs. Media CDN customers may have experienced higher latencies than normal. Initial traffic mitigations have yielded positive results for some Cloud customers. We have restored a portion of Internet Edge peering capacity to reduce latency in the local Delhi metropolitan area. Further, we are augmenting out-of-region Internet Edge regional peering capacity in Chennai to provide additional load-balancing and redundancy to large ISPs in India (expected to be done by Wednesday, 2026-06-17 PDT). We have optimized capacity across network backbones to increase available headroom. Additionally, we have augmented our
