Mitigation action has been taken and new pipelines can be triggered. Pipelines are being processed, but delays are still expected for up to 2 hours. Jobs may still be stuck in pending state during this time. See issue for details: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-infra/production/-/work_items/21190

Hosted Runners continue to process without delay and are able to retrieve cached CI/CD variables. However some background processing is currently impacted and users may observe environments/review apps URLs not updating. We continue to wait for the fix to reach production. Details in gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-infra/production/-/work_items/21190.

Background processing remains degraded, affecting Environments & Review Apps. Hosted Runners and CI jobs are healthy. A revert MR is queued for production, with more changes needed to address background processing. See: gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-infra/production/-/work_items/21190

Background processing remains degraded, however the revert MR has been merged a short time ago. We are monitoring performance to see if the MR results in performance returning to optimal levels.

We've disabled the worker responsible for the issues. We've merged another fix for that specific worker and are in the process of deploying it to production before re-enabling it. The next update will be posted once that is completed.
