us-east-1
Date: March 28-29, 2024
On March 28th from 23:40 UTC to March 29th at 1:43 UTC, Checkly experienced elevated browser check scheduling delay in the us-east-1
region due to an unexpected surge in browser check runs, attributed to suspicious activity. This incident impacted approximately 37,600 browser and multistep checks, with the maximum delay reaching 44.5 minutes. API checks and heartbeat checks remained unaffected. All delayed checks were eventually processed. We didn’t detect any signs of false positives caused by this incident.
Suspicious activity within one customer’s accounts generated over 21,000 additional browser check runs in a short period of time, saturating the us-east-1
region's capacity and causing the delays.
We apologize for any inconvenience and assure you that all delayed checks were executed without any false positives. Checkly is committed to providing a reliable service and we are taking steps to enhance our resilience and security.
