We recognize the recent Passportal performance issues are frustrating and disruptive to your business. Our engineering teams continue to make this a top priority and we sincerely apologize for these challenges.
We continue to investigate the root cause and will update here when we have a more concrete path for remediation.
Steps taken:
- Significantly increased capacity for the U.S. cluster to a R4.16Xlarge (upgraded from R4.4Xlarge) to help mitigate performance degradations
- Decreased the threshold of our query timeouts to eliminate performance bottlenecks and backlogging
Next steps:
- Analyze and optimize long-running queries that have been causing bottlenecks and backlogging
- Review and upgrade database configuration
- Assess deadlock errors
- Enhance our tech stack to allow for better caching (Redis)
This will be an on-going process and will keep you updated via our:
Please keep in mind that this outage is directly linked to performance and availability and is not security related, and only affects our U.S. Cluster.
