Website and services partially unavailable due to high database load
majorOct 5, 2026 · resolved Oct 5
The primary database was under high CPU load from 1:11PM-1:29PM PT. The impact of this is that our website and API were partially unavailable \(more precisely, at 80-90% availability\) during that time. ### Scope What was affected: This affected most services including the website, builds, submissions, CI/CD jobs, and publishing updates. What wasn’t affected: Serving updates to end users maintained 100.000% availability. App performance measurements sent to Observe were also unaffected. ### Root cause analysis An internal orchestrator service used to update the state of CI/CD jobs, including build jobs and store submission jobs, was updated to retry upon application-level failures. We are investigating more thoroughly and currently believe this led to a cascade of retries that caused more failures once the database was under more load than it could handle. ### Remediation The commit that changed retry behavior was rolled back and we are clearing the queue of retries. For a more robust solution, the internal orchestrator must gracefully handle backpressure from the application server and database, and to apply more backoff.
