Intermittent slowness in Vector US-EAST-1 region
minorMay 29, 2026
Some Upstash Vector indexes in the US-EAST-1 region may be experiencing intermittent slowness. Initial investigation indicates this may be related to memory pressure on the affected servers. Our team is actively investigating the root cause and working to restore normal performance. We will provide updates as soon as more information is available.

Upstash Redis – intermittent connection issues in some regions
majorMay 14, 2026 · resolved May 14
Earlier today, unexpected load on our proxies caused intermittent connection issues for Upstash Redis in the following regions: us-east-1, us-west-1, ap-southeast-2, and ap-south-1. During this period, some clients may have seen connection timeouts or elevated error rates when reaching their databases. Our team identified the issue quickly and applied workarounds to relieve pressure on the affected proxies. Connection health has since been restored and we've been monitoring the regions to confirm everything is stable. All systems are now operating normally. We appreciate your patience and apologize for any disruption this may have caused.
Fly.io Upstash Redis Service Distruption
criticalMay 12, 2026 · resolved May 12
On May 12th and 13th at various times, a subset of Upstash Redis instances on [Fly.io](http://Fly.io) experienced intermittent hangs and elevated error rates. The Redis process would stall inside a logging syscall — alive but not making progress — which made the issue hard to spot from our usual telemetry. After investigating with Fly's team, we identified the root cause as a bad interaction between a recent guest kernel update on Fly's newer machines and an upstream Cloud Hypervisor bug \([cloud-hypervisor#7672](https://github.com/cloud-hypervisor/cloud-hypervisor/issues/7672)\) affecting log writes from inside the VM. We mitigated by disabling the affected logging paths, and Fly has since rolled out a hypervisor-side patch, fully resolving the issue. No data was lost. Sorry for the disruption.
