Incident Report

Summary AI Generated

Salesforce experienced a 2.2-hour performance degradation caused by increased database session activity driving elevated cache response times, resulting in slow response times, timeouts, and connectivity issues across multiple instances. The impact radius expanded during the incident as additional affected instances were identified. The issue was resolved by remapping affected instances to a newly scaled cache cluster, with full propagation expected within 60 minutes of deployment.
