Remember, it was supposed to impact a smaller number of systems … if that had worked, they would have rolled it back/reverted it. Google is always testing small/incremental chanages.

Who makes critical changes in the middle of a day on Sunday to core infrastructure?

I guess "the cloud" doesn’t have a separate management network. :)

Once alerted, engineering teams quickly identified the cause of the network congestion, but the same network congestion which was creating service degradation also slowed the engineering teams’ ability to restore the correct configurations, prolonging the outage.

Starting at 2019-06-02 12:53 (US/Pacific), Google is reporting a network issue affecting their own products as well as "throughout all Google Cloud Platform, this is affecting all products currently".

 

 <https://status.cloud.google.com/incident/cloud-networking/19009> https://status.cloud.google.com/incident/cloud-networking/19009

 

 

Anecdotally this appears to have caused intermittent problems to complete outages for:

 

* Gmail

* Youtube

* Google's public DNS (8.8.8.8)

* Google products like Nest

* Non-google sites apparently hosted in Google's cloud products such as Snapchat, Vimeo, etc.
