    Dear members,

    We will be rolling out a new update to the MTL service shortly.

    As with any change of this kind, we are anticipating a few hiccups along the way. You may notice slower responses, occasional errors, or downloads that do not complete on the first attempt, both during the rollout and for a short period afterwards.

    If you do come across anything unusual, feel free to let our User Support team know, with as much detail as you can. Our team will be keeping an eye on the service and will work on smoothing out anything that comes up. Your feedback is always welcome and helps us get there quicker.

    This update is part of our continuous effort to make our services faster and more reliable for the whole community.

    We thank you for your patience, your understanding and your support.

Major Outage Affecting Services

    All affected services have remained stable following the recovery actions taken earlier, and we are not currently observing any service impact.

    We will continue to closely monitor the situation, as our service provider's maintenance activities are still ongoing. Whilst we do not anticipate further disruption, there remains a possibility of service degradation until their work has been fully completed.

    Thank you for your patience and understanding. Happy flying/controlling!

    Most of our services have now stabilised and are operating normally. We are currently verifying the status of all remaining affected components.

  • Identified
    UTC
    Identified

    One of our service providers inadvertently degraded their service whilst performing maintenance, resulting in reduced capacity. This caused several nodes in our Kubernetes cluster, which hosts the majority of our websites and APIs, to become unresponsive.

    Our team is actively working to restore service and is manually scaling the cluster to recover affected systems as quickly as possible. We will continue to provide updates as more information becomes available.

    A major outage affecting one of our key service providers is currently impacting most of our services. We are in contact with the provider and will share updates as more information becomes available.

    Postmortem

    During a manual cluster resource rebalance, a load surge caused a temporary unavailability of our Web Cluster control plane.
    This prevented the normal scaling and operations from completing successfully.

    For future cluster maintenance operations, a slower and more gradual rollout of our deployments will be made to avoid the surge we faced today.

    Hello everyone,

    We would like to inform you that we will be entering a prolonged maintenance period for a migration on our web cluster today at 18:00 UTC.

    This migration, that will span across several days, will enable us to prepare our infrastructure for upcoming changes and exciting updates across our services.

    During this migration you may experience temporary disruptions affecting some of our web services, including tracker data availability. However, active pilot and ATC sessions should continue operating normally without interruption.

    If you encounter any prolonged issues during or after the maintenance, please reach out to our User Support team through the Family Discord ticketing system. You can join our Family Discord on https://ivao.family

    Thank you for your patience and understanding.
