Websites of big companies around the world, including X (formerly known as Twitter), OpenAI, Canva, and Spotify, are experiencing a down time over technical issues affecting Cloudflare, a web infrastructure firm.
The development occurred on Tuesday morning after users
reported issues with X and other services on Downdetector, an outage monitoring
site.
The technical glitch is also affecting access to major
Nigerian news sites.
An error message stating that “there’s an internal server
error on Cloudflare’s network”, was displayed on the websites of the
aforementioned media companies following a check by our reporter.
Cloudflare acknowledged the downtime, stating on its website
that it “is experiencing an internal service degradation”.
“Some services may be intermittently impacted,” the internet
infrastructure firm said.
“We are focused on restoring service. We will update as we
are able to remediate. More updates to follow shortly.”
The company, 33 minutes later, reported that they were
“seeing services recover, but customers may continue to observe
higher-than-normal error rates as we continue remediation efforts”.
“We have made changes that have allowed Cloudflare Access
and WARP to recover,” the company’s latest update said.
“Error levels for Access and WARP users have returned to
pre-incident rates.
“We are continuing to work towards restoring other
services.”
Some Nigerian websites, as at 3:13 pm, are still not
working.
