Happo incident

General downtime

Resolved after 43 minutes, affecting API and Chrome and 1 more, on June 23, 2025.

postmortem Jun 23, 2025, 04:27 PM UTC

The root cause of the downtime and slowness from the API was a new database query that we deployed a few days ago. Once it had some traffic we started noticing slow queries coming from the new query. It took us a about an hour to track everything down, and we quickly reverted the code that added the new query. We will continue to monitor things but as of right now the system is stable.
