Please note, this information is based on our best knowledge at the time of posting and is subject to change as our investigation continues. If you have experienced impact outside of what is listed below, please reach out to Google Workspace Support using the help article https://support.google.com/a/answer/1047213.\n(All Times US/Pacific)\n**Incident Start:** 26 September, 2025 08:40\n**Incident End:** 26 September, 2025 09:47\n**Duration:** 1 hours, 7 minutes\n**Affected Services and Features:**\nGoogle Meet\n**Regions/Zones:** Global\n**Description:**\nGoogle Meet users experienced elevated error rates globally for a duration of 1 hour, 7 minutes. The preliminary root cause was a recent rollout to a backend API server, which was mitigated after the rollback completed.\nGoogle will complete a full Incident Report in the following days that will provide a full root cause.\n**Customer Impact:**\nAffected users experienced 504 errors when attempting to access Google Meet.\n---","createdAt":"2025-09-26T19:08:58+00:00"},{"id":"update_gws_Cy8B1om17oecUkKm3G9Q_20251002t0008130000","status":"resolved","body":"# Incident Report\n## Summary\nOn Friday, 26 September 2025 at 08:40 US/Pacific, Google Meet users experienced elevated error rates globally for 1 hour, 1 minute. To our Google Meet customers who were impacted during this disruption, we sincerely apologize. This is not the level of quality and reliability we strive to offer you, and we are taking immediate steps to improve the platform’s performance and availability.\n## Root Cause\nThe root cause of the incident was a flaw in the error-handling logic within the experimentation module's configuration evaluation. This flaw created the conditions for resource contention, where too many processes attempted to access the same system resource at once.\nThe trigger was a specific change to the Meet experimentation configuration file, which caused an elevated error level during evaluation and led to the contention in the Meet backend. Our monitoring systems detected the issue right away, and engineers quickly identified the change as the source. They reverted the update, which resolved the issue.\n## Remediation and Prevention\nGoogle engineers were alerted to the issue through the internal alerts at 08:49 US/Pacific on 26 September, 2025 and immediately started an investigation. They identified several recent changes as potential causes, and began systematically rolling back those changes.\nAt 09:25 US/Pacific, engineers reverted the Meet API Server binary to a previous version.\nAt 09:41 US/Pacific, engineers reverted and paused subsequent Meet backend API server configuration rollouts across all Google Meet production clusters thus mitigating the issue.\nAt 11:52 US/Pacific, engineers reverted the change that caused lock contention.\nWe sincerely apologize to our customers who were impacted by this disruption. This is not the level of quality and reliability we strive to offer, and we are taking the following steps to ensure this does not happen again. The Google Meet Engineering team is accelerating the deprecation of legacy code that caused lock contention.\n## Detailed Description of Impact\nOn Friday, 26 September 2025, from 08:40 to 09:41 US/Pacific, users were either unable to connect to Google Meet or experienced problems with establishing meetings. Users already in Google Meet sessions were likely not impacted. The issue affected up to 20 percent of Google Meet users globally.","createdAt":"2025-10-02T00:08:13+00:00"}],"access":{"plan":"public","keyed":false}}}
