4. 15 Σεπτεμβρίου 2025 στις 8:28 μ.μ. UTCpostmortem

   ### Summary On **September 15th, 2025**, we experienced service disruptions affecting the Import Tool and Confirmation module notifications. The root cause was a misidentified SSL certificate dependency during the scheduled **Azure Database for MySQL maintenance**, which included the rotation of the MySQL server’s SSL certificates. ### Impact * The Import Tool was unavailable for a period of time. * Confirmation module notifications \(via SMS and email\) were disrupted. * Some other automated functions experienced degraded performance. ### Root Cause While we were aware of the scheduled SSL certificate rotation as part of Azure’s maintenance process, our evaluation process incorrectly identified which certificates were being used by certain subsystems. As a result, several services lost connectivity when the certificates were rotated. ### Mitigation and Resolution * Our engineering team corrected the certificate configuration for the affected subsystems. * The Import Tool and Confirmation module notifications were restored to full functionality. * Safeguards are being added to ensure that future SSL rotations do not cause similar disruptions. ### Contributing Factors At the onset of the incident, we initially believed the outages were linked to updates and fixes deployed on Thursday and Friday of the previous week. This led to rollbacks that did not address the issue. Although unrelated to the outage, some of those updates remain rolled back and will be re-published in the coming days. ### Next Steps * We are reworking our dependency system analysis to more accurately map SSL and package dependencies across all services. * We are improving our monitoring and review processes for certificate rotations to ensure full coverage across all subsystems. * We will re-publish rolled-back updates after additional validation. ### Conclusion We sincerely apologize for the operational problems this incident caused. We take these issues seriously and are committed to ensuring that similar outages do not reoccur in the future.

   We want to inform you that we recently experienced network degradation affecting our services due to an ongoing issue within Microsoft's Azure infrastructure in the East US region. What Happened? According to Azure, between 13:09 UTC and 18:51 UTC, a fiber cut impacted network capacity in the region, leading to intermittent connectivity loss and increased latency. While Azure has since mitigated the issue, we observed disruptions in our own services between 7:20 PM and 8:27 PM (Eastern Time), specifically affecting connections between the Cigo Tracker web app and our Redis service. Current Status As of 8:27 PM UTC, network latencies have returned to normal, and service stability has been restored. However, to ensure a prompt and complete resolution, we have escalated this matter to Azure's Operations Support with a critical priority. We appreciate your patience and will continue monitoring the situation closely. If you experience any further issues, please reach out to our support team.

   ## 📣 Incident Summary – March 18–19, 2025 **Service Impact on Cigo Tracker due to Azure Regional Outage** On March 18, 2025, Cigo Tracker experienced intermittent service disruption due to a regional outage within Microsoft Azure’s East US data center region. Below is a summary of the root cause, impact, and the steps being taken to prevent future occurrences. ### 🕒 What Happened? Azure’s East US region suffered two separate impact windows: * March 18, 13:37 to 16:52 UTC * March 18, 23:20 to March 19, 00:30 UTC The incident was triggered by a **third-party fiber cut** during external drilling work, which caused reduced network capacity in one of Azure’s Availability Zones. A **tooling failure** during Azure's recovery efforts later reintroduced traffic prematurely, leading to congestion and a second round of intermittent connectivity issues. ### 🔍 Root Cause 1. **Fiber Cut**: A construction-related accident physically damaged fiber cabling serving the East US datacenter, degrading network capacity. 2. **Router Maintenance**: A key router in the same zone was already under repair, limiting redundancy. 3. **Tooling Error**: Azure’s automated recovery system failed to fully isolate damaged infrastructure, inadvertently reintroducing traffic too early. 4. **Congestion Spillover**: The unexpected traffic load caused congestion to spread beyond AZ03 into neighboring zones. ### 🎯 Impact on Cigo Tracker While the Azure issue only affected a subset of inter-zone traffic in East US, this included infrastructure we rely on, resulting in **intermittent connectivity issues** for some customers during the incident windows. Core services were restored once Azure manually completed isolation and fiber recovery work. ### 🛠 Resolution Timeline * **13:37 UTC, Mar 18** – Outage begins due to fiber cut * **13:55 UTC** – Initial mitigation starts; traffic rerouted * **16:52 UTC** – First impact window ends * **23:20 UTC** – Second outage begins due to tooling error during recovery * **00:30 UTC, Mar 19** – Final mitigation complete * **06:50 UTC** – Full restoration of all infrastructure ### ✅ What Azure is Doing to Prevent Recurrence * Fixing tooling failures that allowed reintroduction of unready capacity \(by May 2025\) * Accelerating a capacity upgrade for the East US datacenter \(by July 2025\) * Architecting better safeguards to prevent impact from spreading across zones \(by February 2026\) We apologize for the inconvenience caused. Please rest assured that our team is working closely with Azure and continuing to invest in the resiliency of our platform. If you have any questions or would like help designing a more resilient setup, feel free to reach out to our support team. Thank you for your continued trust

   On November 14th, at approximately 10:15 PM, during a planned network maintenance session, we undertook a migration of core network routing resources. Unfortunately, this migration inadvertently impacted our DNS records, causing DNS Probe errors for some customers attempting to access our services. To address the issue, our operations team promptly remapped the affected DNS records and adjusted network restriction rules to restore connectivity. The total downtime was less than one hour. The root cause of this incident was an unforeseen interaction between the migration process and automatic changes to both networking rules and DNS records. While this was an unanticipated challenge, we’re grateful for the swift recovery efforts of our operations team. The issue has been fully resolved, and measures have been implemented to mitigate the risk of similar occurrences in the future. If you are still experiencing connectivity issues, we recommend: 1. Allowing additional time for DNS propagation to reach your network. 2. Performing a DNS flush on your network or operating system. If the issue persists, please contact us at [email protected], and we’ll be happy to assist you. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused and appreciate your patience and understanding during this time.

   Incident Summary: On August 11th, a significant issue occurred with the Email Consumer in the Notification Service. The Email Consumer stopped functioning at approximately 8:00 PM EDT, leading to a series of cascading issues within the Notification Service. This incident did not impact the rest of the Cigo Tracker service. Timeline of Events: - 8:00 PM EDT: The Email Consumer ceased functioning. - 8:00 PM - 7:00 AM EDT: Messages began queuing at a significantly reduced rate. - 7:00 AM - 10:00 AM EDT: The rate at which messages were queued increased substantially. - 11:00 AM - 2:08 PM EDT: The Email queue reached its capacity, resulting in the rejection of new messages. During this period, both email and SMS message publishing were halted, despite the expectation that only the Email queue should have been affected. Impact: - The system experienced a complete halt in both email and SMS message publishing between 11:00 AM and 2:08 PM EDT, affecting communication and potentially leading to delays in message delivery. Root Cause: - There is a suspected code-logic error that may be causing incorrect checks on the queues, leading to the stoppage of both email and SMS publishing when the Email queue reaches its capacity. Actions Taken: - An alert was sent to the appropriate internal communications channel when the Email Consumer failed. However, due to a configuration issue, the notification was not received by the intended recipients at the time of the failure. - The issue was remediated at around 2:00 PM EDT by restarting the Email Consumer and fixing the Email queue. Adjustments have been made to the channel configuration to include additional team members and ensure quicker responses in the future. Next Steps: - Investigate the root cause of the Email queue failure. - Determine why reaching the maximum queue size for emails also impacted the SMS queue. - Ensure that the monitoring and alerting systems are fully operational and that all team members are notified promptly of any critical failures. - Conduct a thorough review of the queue management logic to identify and rectify any underlying issues. Conclusion: We are taking appropriate actions to prevent this issue from recurring. Our team is committed to ensuring the reliability of the Notification Service, and we will continue to monitor and improve our systems to provide the best possible service to our customers.

   ### Incident Timeline **Incident Duration:** Approximately 6 hours, from 11:20 UTC to 17:30 UTC on September 13, 2023 ### Timeline of Events #### Incident Identification \(September 13, 2023\) * **11:20 UTC / 7:20 ET:** Customers started experiencing issues with degraded web and mobile app performance, including higher latency and disconnects. #### Incident Response \(September 13, 2023\) * **13:00 UTC / 9:30 ET:** We initiated an internal investigation into the performance degradation and suspected connectivity issues with our servers. #### Mitigation and Communication \(September 13, 2023\) * **17:28 UTC / 13:28 ET:** Full platform performance was restored, and intermittent connectivity errors disappeared. However, we continued monitoring the situation. #### Incident Closure and Ongoing Investigation \(September 13, 2023\) * **19:00 UTC / 15:00 ET:** The incident was officially closed as platform performance returned to normal levels. ### Root Cause Analysis The root cause of this incident was identified as a faulty device in Azure Frontdoor. This device continued transmitting traffic from the edge sites for an extended period of time, leading to congestion and packet drops. The prolonged transmission from the faulty device resulted in higher latency, disconnects, and failed service responses. ### Mitigation Microsoft Azure mitigated the issue by routing traffic away from the problematic device to a healthy one. This action restored normal service operations. ### Preventive Measures To prevent future occurrences, we are committed to implementing the following measures: 1. **Collaboration with Azure:** We will maintain a strong collaboration with Microsoft Azure's OSS team to ensure a proactive approach to identifying and addressing potential issues promptly. 2. **Traffic Monitoring:** Regular monitoring of traffic patterns will be implemented to detect anomalies and address them swiftly. 3. **Redundancy and Failover:** We will explore redundancy options and failover mechanisms to minimize the impact of similar incidents. ### Conclusion We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and disruption this incident may have caused our customers during the impact window of 11:20 UTC to 17:30 UTC \(7:20 ET to 13:30 ET\) on September 13, 2023. We appreciate your patience and understanding throughout the incident resolution process. Our commitment to providing reliable and performant services remains unwavering, and we will continue to work diligently to improve our systems and prevent future incidents. If you have any further questions or require additional information, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. Thank you for your continued support.

   The Cigo Tracker platform and backend systems that feed the mobile app were impacted by an outage within Microsoft Azure's networking infrastructure. The outage also impacted Microsoft 365, Teams, and Outlook. Due to this widespread outage, our systems were either fully or partially unavailable from 2:05 AM to 3:45 AM EST (7:05 AM to 9:45 AM UTC). The root cause was identified by Azure, and mitigated. This seems to have primarily impacted our customers in Europe and in the Middle East during their core hours of operation. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

   New update from Azure. They are still investigating the issue and we remain on hold: Starting at 16:10 (UTC) on 07 Sep 2022, customers using Azure Front Door could be experiencing connectivity issues. This could also be impacting customers’ ability to access the Azure Management Portal. We are investigating a spike in traffic as a potential cause. Retries are likely to be successful.

3. 7 Σεπτεμβρίου 2022 στις 6:23 μ.μ. UTCidentified

   The Microsoft Azure team has confirmed that they identified the potential cause as "a spike in traffic". They have further clarified the following: "While we are not currently observing any traffic spikes currently, we are working on remediating the residual impact. We are recovering a number of nodes that are showing intermittent connectivity issues. For customers who are experiencing connectivity issues, retries are likely to be successful. Most customers should be seeing recovery at this stage." From our monitoring systems, our DNS health seems to be recovering, but there is still a 5% fluctuation that may impact some customers in some regions.

4. 7 Σεπτεμβρίου 2022 στις 7:07 μ.μ. UTCmonitoring

   Microsoft Azure's team has confirmed that they are working on a full system recovery following a large spike in traffic that disrupted their network infrastructure: "We are recovering intermittent connectivity issues. Traffic managed by Azure Front Door service is being recovered by systematically going through the regions where we are observing resource impact and enforcing traffic management on the same. Once the recovery process is completed, the service should be able to resume handling traffic normally." We are monitoring the health of our Front Door and are seeing a steady recovery.
