Google Cloud, Snapchat, Spotify back up after brief outage
Several social media applications such as Snapchat, Spotify and Alphabet’s Google Cloud appeared to be back online after a brief global outage on Tuesday. (Sign up for our technology newsletter Today’s Cache to learn more about emerging topics at the intersection of technology, business, and policy. Click here to subscribe for free.) Google said that shortly after thousands of users flagged it on the outage tracking site downdetector.com, its cloud network issue was partially resolved, and that the issue counts Etsy, Spotify, and Snap Inc as customers.
Google Cloud’s dashboard earlier revealed that services including cloud developer tools, cloud consoles and cloud engines are all facing disruptions. Spotify has stated that after more than 50,000 users reported problems with downdetector, it has realized that “there are some problems and are checking them”, but according to the website, these outages have been resolved. “Many Snapchat users have encountered problems with the application.
Please hold on, we are working hard to fix it. At the same time, we recommend staying logged in,” Snapchat support staff said in a tweet earlier. Fastly, the cloud company behind the world’s major Internet, said it was seeing more and more mistakes that “general cloud providers have nothing to do with Fastly’s edge cloud platform”. Tuesday’s brief outage came after a six-hour widespread outage of Meta Platforms Inc (formerly Facebook) last month.
The company’s router configuration was paralyzed after an incorrect change. Downdetector only tracks outages by collating status reports from a range of sources, including errors submitted by users on its platform. The outage may have affected more users.

SpiceJet will deploy its 78-seater Q400 aircraft in these sectors. Bookings for the new flights are now open and tickets are available at the website of the airline, SpiceJet’s mobile app and through online travel portals and travel agents.
On Monday, the airline received a significant boost, with Acuite Ratings & Research Limited upgrading its long-term rating by four notches to ‘B ‘ and its short-term rating to A4. The rating agency has also assigned a ‘Stable’ outlook to the airline.
