We want to update you on a performance issue that affected our API services today. Starting at approximately 7 AM EST, we began experiencing slower response times and, in some instances, timeouts across our services. After thorough investigation, our team identified that the root cause was a failure in the connection to one of our Redis caches. This issue was pinpointed around 12 PM EST.
By 1 PM EST, we successfully deployed a fix to restore the connection and stabilize our services. We have monitored the situation closely and can confirm that the API is now performing normally.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and appreciate your patience as we worked to resolve the issue. Our team will continue to monitor our systems to prevent similar issues in the future.
