Failing requests and timeouts

What to do

• Check whether you use crates.io crates.io. Check your stack

  Drop a package.json, lockfile, Terraform or a list of domains at down.guide to see every provider you depend on.

• Confirm your retries, queues and scheduled jobs caught up after the 11h 42m it lasted.

  Anything that failed between 2023-10-18 19:03 UTC and 2023-10-19 06:45 UTC may need a replay.

• Subscribe to crates.io's feed to hear about the next one first. RSS feed
