Incident Report

Summary AI Generated

An AWS outage in the UAE region caused Asana services to become unavailable for users with data stored in the Middle East region, while other regions remained unaffected. The incident escalated from potential performance issues to major service unavailability lasting over 13 days. Asana resolved the issue by following AWS recommendations to move processing to other regions, restoring service for the small number of affected users.

Asana remains accessible to customers in the ME region, but we are seeing backends impacted by an AWS ME outage. If that isn't resolved soon, we expect to see some performance degradation and possible outages of the Asana application. This is only for the ME region; other regions are unaffected.
