Several major websites, Politico, Medium and Patreon, closed the Friday after noon after Cloudflare’s DNS service encountered technical issues.
The interruption occurred at approximately 2:1 five p.m. Pacific sites and impacted cloudfare for approximately one component per hour. Cloudflare said the outage is not the result of a hack or cyber attack.
“This afternoon, we saw an interruption in the amount of our net paintings. It wasn’t the result of an attack,” a Cloudflare spokesman told TheWrap on Friday afternoon. “It turns out that a router on our global crest has advertised misclassified ads and prevented available amounts of netpaintings. We, who have given us, address the root cause and stability tracking systems now. We’ll share sooner – we got a team that’s writing an update as we speak.”
Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince tweeted that the compared apple had experienced a difficulty with a router in Atlanta that had left several sites inaccessible during the 30-minute period.
“Everything is restored now and we are in the root cause,” Prince said in a follow-up tweet.
We isolate the Atlanta router and close our backbone network, instead we route traffic between transit providers. There is some congestion that ended in slow functionality on some routes when the log jammed. Everything is restored now and we are looking for the root cause. 2/2
