On Friday, users from all around the world reported interruptions to Cloudflare's services, which led to a flurry of complaints and displeasure on the social media site X.
Numerous websites, including Canva and the tracking website Downdetector, were impacted by the outage, which prevented many users from accessing essential services.
The outage also affected trading platforms Groww and Zerodha. According to Reuters, Cloudflare stated that company is looking into problems with its Dashboard and associated Application Programming Interfaces (APIs).
According to the company's status page, customers who use the Dashboard or Cloudflare APIs are affected since requests may fail and errors may appear.
In over a month, this is the second downtime. A outage at Cloudflare in November momentarily affected a wide range of internet services, including ChatGPT, Spotify, and even President Donald Trump's Truth Social platform.
Cloudflare offers essential internet infrastructure, such as services that protect websites from cyberattacks and enable them to remain operational during periods of high traffic.
Social media users expressed their annoyance over the frequent outages and reported widespread service interruptions. Many expressed how their jobs and businesses were affected, requesting explanations and pressuring the organization to address the problems as soon as possible.
