Google’s cloud services, which provide computing power for many major companies’ websites, have been fully restored after outages on Tuesday that were caused by a glitch in a network configuration.
Networking issues plagued major consumer websites from 9:35 a.m. to 11:28 a.m. San Francisco time, the Alphabet Inc.-owned company said on a status dashboard. The configuration update happened at 10:10 a.m., and made websites unable to balance traffic loads. Google’s Cloud Run, App Engine, Cloud Functions and Apigee services were also affected.
