New Routific outage
Incident Report for Routific
Postmortem

On January 22, 2025 at approximately 10:16 AM PST, Routific experienced an outage that prevented users from accessing the new Routific. The disruption lasted around 45 minutes before full service was restored. Our investigation determined that a bug in our internal messaging system caused a backlog of unacknowledged messages, which overwhelmed the system and led to the outage.
Our engineering team quickly identified the root cause and deployed a fix to clear the message backlog and stabilize the platform. We have also improved our monitoring and alerting systems to detect similar issues sooner and avoid future disruptions.
Thank you for your patience as we worked to resolve this matter.
