On November 2, 2023, there was a power outage at our Portland, Oregon data center that resulted in a service interruption for some customers. Due to issues with backup power failures, as well as an unstable power environment resulting in additional challenges, service restoration has taken longer than is typical. Power to the data center has been restored, and we’re in the process of getting impacted customers back online as quickly as possible.
