A networking issue has been identified in the Nectar Cloud.

Some tenant network functionality may also be impacted. This impacts launching new instances, existing ones are still accessible as normal.

    After a period of monitoring, we are confident that service levels have returned to normal.

    This incident is now resolved.

    All services have now been restored across all availability zones.

    Intersect and Queensland zones are still showing some irregular behaviour but with no direct impact to functionality, we believe the situation is under control. Our team is continuing to monitor closely and will share another update if anything significant changes.
    Thank you for your patience as we work to ensure full stability.
