Incident Report

Summary AI Generated

Paessler's PRTG Hosted Monitor instances in AWS regions me-central-1 (UAE) and me-south-1 (Bahrain) were impacted by an AWS infrastructure issue affecting multiple services in specific availability zones. The company migrated affected customer instances through multiple regions, initially to me-south-1 which also experienced issues, then unsuccessfully to ap-south-1 (Mumbai), and finally successfully to ap-south-2 (Hyderabad). The incident was resolved after 62 hours when all customers were moved out of the impaired data centers, and Paessler temporarily removed the affected regions as options for new subscriptions.

Several services impacted in region me-central-1 (UAE), see also: https://health.aws.amazon.com/health/status?eventID=arn:aws:health:me-central-1::event/MULTIPLE_SERVICES/AWS_MULTIPLE_SERVICES_OPERATIONAL_ISSUE/AWS_MULTIPLE_SERVICES_OPERATIONAL_ISSUE_5E6B8_EF2498889B5 Instances in one particular availability zone of that region are affected, we are trying to migrate affected machines to a different availability zone.

Due to ongoing issues in me-central-1 & me-south-1, we have removed those regions for now as options for starting new PRTG Hosted Monitor subscriptions there.

A few PRTG Hosted Monitor instances are still running in me-central-1 inside the non-affected availability zone. Based on AWS' recommendation, we try to migrate those also to a different region, as soon as it's technically feasible.
