4. 28. Januar 2026 um 00:27 UTCpostmortem

   # Summary Between 2026-01-09 21:26 UTC and 2026-01-12 14:18 UTC, some asset uploads returned an upload failure error in Asset Manager despite the uploads completing successfully. Additionally, legacy video customers experienced transcoding delays as a result of the incident. # What Went Wrong A production misconfiguration caused a validation step in the Asset Manager pipeline to fail. As a result: * The legacy video encoding process did not initiate for uploaded videos * Assets did not appear in Asset Manager because they failed validation While affected assets were still available at the origin and accessible via the Rendering and Video APIs, they did not appear in the Asset Manager UI and were not available through the legacy Long-Form Video API. # What we will do to prevent this in the future We have done the following things: 1. Added more alerting and patched logging gaps to catch the issue sooner 2. Fix a flaw in our build system that allowed a two-step deploy to get out of sync

5. 11. November 2025 um 00:18 UTCpostmortem

   # **Summary** Between October 21 and October 29, customers in Europe experienced 3 separate periods of increased latency for rendering requests. In a small number of cases, requests temporarily failed with “429 – concurrency limit reached” responses. # **What Went Wrong** The incident was traced to a GPU scaling issue from one of our upstream infrastructure providers. This led to temporary slowdowns and under higher-than-usual load. ### **Timeline** * **October 21:** Increased rendering latency in EU region, self-resolved. Investigation traced issue to GPU scaling in upstream infrastructure. Mitigation prepared. * **October 27:** Issue recurred. Manual mitigation deployed to stabilize rendering and automate future handling. * **October 29:** Latency alert triggered again. Previous fix mitigates impact, but latency becomes intermittent; additional configuration changes implemented to fully restore service and prevent recurrence. # What we will do to prevent this in the future While the new configurations will prevents recurring incidents, we are making further improvements to rendering resiliency and recovery speed: * Added more GPU hardware types to reduce the risk of scaling delays during peak demand. * Testing and evaluating additional hardware configurations to improve resiliency. * Finalizing fine-tuning of current configurations and exploring cross-regional load-balancing capabilities to further strengthen reliability. * Adjusted alerting thresholds to provide earlier notification of emerging issues.

8. 20. Juni 2025 um 19:03 UTCpostmortem

   # Incident Summary Between **17:55 and 20:22 UTC** on **June 12, 2025**, Imgix services experienced major service disruptions across several key interfaces: * **Dashboard and Asset Manager**: These interfaces were inaccessible, preventing users from managing their assets or viewing account information. * **Management API**: Requests to the Management API consistently returned errors, affecting workflows reliant on programmatic updates or asset administration. * **Rendering API:** Approximately 8% of all Imgix service requests failed due to a high error rate \(~80%\) for **uncached** assets via the Rendering API. Requests in the EU saw a lower failure rate \(~50%\) and a faster recovery time \(45 minutes\) for these uncached requests. # What caused it The incident was triggered by a global outage within Google Cloud, which serves as a core infrastructure provider for Imgix. The outage affected most services in all regions simultaneously. You can read more about the [Google Cloud outage here](https://status.cloud.google.com/incidents/ow5i3PPK96RduMcb1SsW#RP1d9aZLNFZEJmTBk8e1). # What happened * **17:55 UTC:** Internal alerts triggered due to a spike in rendering errors and service timeouts. * **18:01 UTC:** A short investigation uncovers several timeouts and increased error rates from Google Cloud. * **18:09 UTC:** Our status page is updated. * **18:53 UTC:** A major Google Cloud outage is confirmed, after which we update our status page. * **18:00–20:16 UTC:** Mitigation efforts were hampered by the far-reaching effects of the outage, preventing us from redirecting traffic or applying configuration changes. * **Throughout:** We confirm that cached images were not affected, though the downtime of several data sources prevents evaluating the full scope and effect of the outage. * **20:16 UTC:** Google reported recovery in all regions except `us-central1`. This allowed us to verify **significantly lower error rates for EU traffic** * **20:47 UTC:** Imgix systems achieved full recovery. * **20:52 UTC:** The incident was officially resolved on our status page. * **21:23 UTC:** Google confirms a full-service recovery at 21:23 UTC. # What went wrong * Google Cloud experienced an outage that simultaneously affected nearly every service in every region worldwide, negating our multi-region redundancy for the image rendering service. * 3rd party services \(such as our CDN\) were also affected by the outage, which removed some of our options for redirecting traffic across regions based on performance. * The outage included the control panes that Google provides to its customers, which removed additional options for redirecting traffic and implementing mitigations. # What we will do to prevent this in the future * Continuing our ongoing internal discussions and evaluations of a multi-cloud render stack to enable failover in the event of a provider-wide outages. * Continue evaluating and improving tools to automatically and manually shift traffic as necessary at each layer of the stack. * Review and enhance incident communication protocols, focusing on faster root cause disclosure and update frequency.
