## Summary On October 28, 2026, a network disruption at our cloud provider affected our US East data center. Starting at 23:28 UTC, services in US East lost the ability to reach our database and certain external services, such as model providers. Connections to end users and to our other regions kept working, so realtime media continued to flow. This caused widespread failures across SIP calls, Room Service, Egress and Ingress APIs, and Cloud Agents in US East. A related issue affected our Mexico region for longer. Connectivity in US East came back at around 23:58 UTC. Mexico recovered at 01:01 UTC after we moved its traffic to nearby regions. Our automatic failover should have moved traffic away from US East, and it didn't. That's the main thing we're fixing. We sincerely apologize to customers whose calls and agents were disrupted. ## Impact **US East \(23:28 to 23:58 UTC\)** * **SIP inbound:** a large share of inbound calls failed, rejected with 500 or 503 responses.

The LiveKit Cloud dashboard was inaccessible for part of this window. Network connectivity recovered at approximately 23:58 UTC, and error rates and call volumes returned to normal by 00:20 UTC. A related network issue also affected our much smaller Mexico region from 2
We've applied a mitigation for our Mexico region and services have returned to baseline. We are continuing to monitor and will update again within 15 minutes.
While the US regions still appear to be stable, we are tracking degraded services including SIP, RTC, and APIs in our Mexico region. We will update again as soon as possible.
We believe the mitigation was successful and are seeing services return to normal. The dashboard is accessible and error rates have gone down across services. We are continuing to monitor to make sure that the situation is resolved. We will update again as soon as possible.
We are still determining the full scope of impact, but we believe that the Room Service has also been impacted. We will update again within 15 minutes.
We are currently attempting a mitigation. We will follow up with more information in the next 15 minutes.
