On August 19, between approximately 12:45 PM and 2:00 PM EDT, Vimeo Enterprise customers were unable to access their video libraries or play videos through our China delivery solution.
What caused it
Our third-party hosting provider experienced an outage that disrupted data access between Mainland China and other regions. 
How we responded

What we’re doing to prevent a recurrence
