Incident Overview:

Late Sunday evening, we observed a 100x anomalous increase in database connection requests which caused a very brief disruption in service.

‌

Actions Taken:

1. Database Cluster Upgrade: In response, we upgraded the database cluster to boost resources and performance.
2. Introduction of Read-Replicas: To enhance database performance and stability, we added read-replicas and shifted website-related traffic to these servers.

Next Steps:

Our commitment to service reliability remains steadfast. We'll maintain vigilant monitoring, investigate anomalies, and take proactive measures to prevent similar incidents in the future.
