Incident Report

Summary AI Generated

**Salesforce Performance Degradation – USA790** Over approximately 4 hours, Salesforce instance USA790 experienced performance degradation driven by a sustained rise in login traffic over several days, which overloaded database resources. The impact expanded beyond initial slowness to include message queue delays, asynchronous job failures, search index disruption, Global Search outages, and login failures for some users. Mitigation efforts partially reduced database CPU load, though login traffic remained elevated and the incident was still ongoing at the time of the last update.

There’s a Salesforce service performance degradation. Users can access the Salesforce service, but some functionality can be unavailable or running at less than optimal performance. General and intermittent slow performance, timeouts, and connectivity issues are possible. We’re investigating the issue and an update will be provided in 30 minutes or sooner if we have more information.
