Incident Report

Summary AI Generated

Liquid Web experienced a major 31-hour outage affecting Cloud VPS and Cloud Dedicated hosting platforms due to connectivity issues between provisioning servers and RabbitMQ hubs. The incident prevented hard reboots, resize operations, backup processes, firewall rule updates, and order processing, while existing servers remained online but provisioning workflows were stalled. Engineers identified the root cause as a connectivity failure, restored services, and implemented corrective measures to prevent recurrence.

On our Cloud VPS and Cloud Dedicated hosting platforms, certain provisioning workflows are failing to execute hard reboots and might affect resize, backup process, and firewall rule updates. The servers themselves are still online, but a provisioning workflow will be affected by this issue. Our Engineers are investigating the issue, and we will share the updates here. Need help?
