**What happened?**  On October 19, 2026, xMatters internal monitoring tools detected service degradation at 10:03 PM Pacific. Shortly after, some customers reported experiencing problems accessing xMatters or using integration and notification services.  **Why did it happen?**  Google Cloud experienced an outage affecting its EU-West-2 region. This disrupted xMatters services in the affected region.  **How did we respond?**  xMatters Support, Engineering, and Operations teams initiated the Major Incident Management process and mitigated the impact of the outage by failing affected systems over to another region. Services became available as systems transitioned. xMatters remained in Monitoring and verified service stability while Google continued recovery work in its affected region.  **What are we doing to prevent it from happening again?**  xMatters is designed with regional resiliency to mitigate the impact of infrastructure provider outages. During this incident, those resiliency measures operated as intended and enabled affected services to be transitioned to another region. Engineering and Operations are reviewing the incident resolution response to identify opportunities to further streamline recovery procedures and reduce recovery time during similar events. --- [2026-10-20T15:27:38.145-07:00] (resolved) The issue has been addressed, and all services have been restored. Thank you for your patience while we addressed this matter. --- [2026-10-19T23:36:17.400-07:00] (monitoring) The xMatters Incident Response team has deployed a fix for the issue. We are currently monitoring the situation to ensure the implementation is stable and that all services are restored. --- [2026-10-19T23:31:17.558-07:00] (identified) The xMatters Incident Response team has identified the source of the issue and is working on a fix.

**What happened?**  On October 1, 2026, xMatters monitoring first detected service degradation at 9:27 AM Pacific, and the first customer report was received at 10:03 AM. Customers in US-EAST1 experienced intermittent Web Interface access issues, API timeouts, and delays or failures when integrations initiated alerts and notifications. Some customers in US-CENTRAL1 may also have experienced voice notification issues during the same period.  **Why did it happen?**  During automated infrastructure scaling in US-EAST1, multiple application services became concentrated on the same compute resource. That resource reached its processing capacity, reducing the capacity available to serve customer requests. Service degradation continued across dependent xMatters functions while additional processing capacity was being added.  **How did we respond?**  As soon as the first customer reported an issue, xMatters Customer Support initiated the internal Major Incident Management process and engaged the Engineering and Operations teams. The incident response team increased service capacity, monitored the affected services, and verified recovery across the Web Interface, APIs, integrations, and notification processing. Service began stabilizing by 10:37 AM, and primary customer impact ended at 10:46 AM. The team continued monitoring before resolving the public incident at 11:56 AM.  **What are we doing to prevent it from happening again?**  Engineering is reviewing service capacity and workload distribution controls to reduce the risk of multiple critical services competing for the same compute resources. The team is also reviewing service health checks and alerting so that capacity issues are identified earlier to ensure required capacity is always available. --- [2026-10-01T11:56:13.133-07:00] (resolved) The issue has been addressed, and all services have been restored.
