Postmortem: What Happened:

On October 20th, starting around 03:00 AM EST, our US server customers experienced approximately 250 minutes of disruption, including about 165 minutes of full system downtime followed by 522 minutes of degraded performance that affected automations and integrations. 

The issue was caused by an outage of our third-party provider, AWS, which primarily impacted the US region, but also created downstream effects globally. As a result, some customers in our EU and AU regions experienced related degraded performance issues with API, automations, and integrations, lasting up to 150 minutes.

‌

What caused it:

This incident was caused by a major outage at our third-party provider, AWS (Amazon Web Services), in one of their U.S. data center regions. This outage led to widespread disruptions across many platforms, including monday.com.

This issue began with errors and delays within AWS’s core systems, which affected how our servers handled data and automations. As AWS implemented mitigation efforts to restore functionality, our team actively worked to maintain stability and recovery as services gradually returned to normal.

‌

How we responded:

Our engineering and developers teams acted immediately to stabilize the platform once the issue was detected. To protect performance and further disruption, we temporarily paused automations and API activity connected to the affected region while we worked on restoring service.

We kept customers informed through regular updates on our Status Page and made configuration changes to reduce the impact on other parts of the platform. As AWS began to recover, we restored platform functionality in stages to ensure everything remained stable. 

Full functionality, including automations, integrations, and API was restored once reliability was confirmed in all regions. 

‌

We sincerely apologize for any disruption this caused to your workflow.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we continue strengthening our systems to ensure greater resilience and reliability.
