Madrid Cloudflare, a leading internet infrastructure provider, announced on Friday that it is investigating a disruption that occurred earlier in the day, affecting several prominent websites such as LinkedIn, Zoom, and others. This marks the second significant incident for the company in under three weeks.
According to Cloudflare, the outage has now been resolved. The company is examining problems related to the Cloudflare Dashboard and associated APIs, which are the interfaces that enable different applications to communicate seamlessly.
Users also reported difficulties accessing the platform X during the incident. The outage briefly impacted operations at Edinburgh Airport in Scotland, though flights resumed once the issue was fixed.
This recent disruption follows a November incident in which Cloudflare users experienced interruptions across services including ChatGPT, the online game League of Legends, and the New Jersey Transit system. Additionally, last month Microsoft addressed an Azure cloud portal outage that temporarily blocked access to Office 365, Minecraft, and other services, attributing it to a configuration change. Amazon also faced a large-scale outage affecting its cloud computing platform in October.
