Monitoring - We have diagnosed a problem at some intermediary point between our location and our uplink provider. While having our uplink provider escalate this issue to the intermediate fibre provider the service suddenly recovered at 01:27.
We're still waiting for feedback from the intermediate provider - but this might take until tomorrow. We're monitoring the link on site for a few more minutes before leaving the location.
Aug 21, 2026 - 01:42 CEST
Investigating - We got notified that our backup DC has lost connectivity and our uplink port is down. Our upstream provider has investigates but found no issues on their side. We're going to investigate on site to restore service as soon as possible.
Customer services are not affected, external monitoring and related status page updates are limited for the time being.

The operator of RZOB, our production datacenter, has informed us that they will be performing maintenance in their network during this time, affecting equipment in Oberhausen and in Frankfurt am Main.
During this maintenance, internet traffic will be redirected to different paths which may negatively affect latency and cause a few seconds of packet loss during the switchover.
We do not expect any significant interruption to services, however we are in contact with the datacenter operator to ensure that we're monitoring for any unexpected impact.
