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:** 18 September 2025, 07:20\n**Incident End:** 18 September 2025, 08:30\n**Duration:** 1 hour, 10 minutes\n**Affected Services and Features:**\nAll Google Workspace products\n**Description:**\nMultiple customers experienced elevated login failures within various Workspace products. From preliminary analysis, the incident was suspected to be caused by a resource contention issue in Google’s internal authentication system.\nGoogle will complete a full incident report in the following days that will provide a full root cause.\n**Customer Impact:**\nMultiple users may have been unable to login to various Google services during the impacted time.","createdAt":"2025-09-18T23:44:08+00:00"},{"id":"update_gws_5V5yK8N8heBKnmdqS1eW_20250924t1727520000","status":"resolved","body":"# Incident Report\n## Summary\nOn Thursday, 18 September 2025, between 07:22 and 08:35 US/Pacific, Google Workspace products experienced elevated login failures globally for a duration of 1 hour 13 minutes. Some users may have been unable to login to various Google Workspace services during that time.\nThis 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\nA shift in traffic led to a resource contention issue within Google's authentication system. The system's capacity for handling concurrent requests was exhausted in several east coast regions, creating a bottleneck that blocked new login requests. This resulted in elevated login failures and errors for users across various Google services.\n## Remediation and Prevention\nGoogle engineers were alerted at 07:31 US/Pacific via internal monitoring. After identifying the bottleneck, engineers made configuration changes to increase the replica count of the affected frontend service component by 50%. This additional capacity relieved the resource contention, and normal service was fully restored by 08:35 US/Pacific.\nGoogle is committed preventing a repeat of this issue in the future and is completing the following actions:\n- We will tune the current authentication frontend's deployment parameters to ensure ongoing system stability\n- Longer term, we plan to eliminate this class of resource contention by migrating to a new architecture.","createdAt":"2025-09-24T17:27:52+00:00"}],"access":{"plan":"public","keyed":false}}}
