Update
We are making further progress in the recovery of customer-facing systems. The web application and APIs are operational, so are logs and corresponding alerts, as well as live APM traces. A subset of metric data is still delayed and being caught-up. We are still however working on processing backloged APM metrics and other types of alerts.

Update
We are still working to resolve this outage. We are working to divert traffic away from the affected components and restoring our customer-facing services. Our mitigations are showing progress, but we are still observing high error rates in our web application and API, and delays in metrics processing and alerting.

Update
We are currently experiencing a widespread outage in our US-1 Data center, and all hands are on deck to resolve it - we are truly sorry for the inconvenience and are working towards a timely resolution. The infrastructure that allows the configuration and resolution of our services is currently severely degraded, causing a number of customer-facing services to be disrupted. This results in high error rates in our web application and API, delays in metrics processing and disrupts alerting.
