## Updates from Railway
### 2026-05-04 17:21 UTC: investigating
We are aware of elevated latency affecting our edge network in US East. Requests to services running in this region may take longer than normal to complete. We are actively investigating and we will provide updates as we learn more.

### 2026-05-04 17:34 UTC: identified
We have identified the issue affecting US East edge latency and are rolling out a fix. Some users may already see improvement, though latency remains elevated for others. We will continue to provide updates as the fix takes effect.

### 2026-05-04 17:39 UTC: monitoring
We suspect the elevated latency is related to an issue with our upstream CDN layer. As a mitigation, we have removed the affected provider from our edge network and are now seeing performance return to normal.
We will continue to monitor before resolving.
