Investigating
We are investigating elevated error rates and degraded performance for some services running in the Google Cloud (GCP) us-central1 region. This is related to an ongoing Google Cloud networking issue affecting a portion of the region.
Customers in this region may experience issues provisioning or deprovisioning clusters, intermittent connectivity issues, elevated latency, or errors. We are actively assessing the full scope of impact and will provide an update as more information becomes available.
