Cloudflare Says It Has Fixed Problem After Global Website Outage

Cloudflare, a leading internet infrastructure provider, faced a significant service disruption on Tuesday, impacting multiple services across its global network. The incident began at 11:48 UTC when the company detected an internal service degradation affecting application services, dashboard access, and WARP connectivity. Customers reported elevated error rates and intermittent failures as Cloudflare engineers worked to diagnose and address the issue. Throughout the afternoon, the company provided frequent updates on its progress. At one point, engineers temporarily disabled WARP access in London, advising users in the region to expect connectivity issues while fixes were being implemented. By 13:09 UTC, Cloudflare identified the root cause and began deploying a solution. Services gradually recovered, with error rates normalizing shortly thereafter. Dashboard access was fully restored at 14:34 UTC, and by 14:42 UTC, the company confirmed that a complete fix had been applied. Cloudflare assured users that the incident had been resolved and that ongoing monitoring would ensure system stability. Earlier in the day, the company also addressed a separate issue with its support portal, caused by problems with a third-party provider. While customers may have experienced errors when viewing cases, the company confirmed that responses to inquiries were unaffected. Cloudflare has yet to disclose the specific cause of the outage.
