System unstable for 10 minutes https://status.pressbooks.com/incident/431887 Thu, 19 Sep 2024 19:15:00 -0000 https://status.pressbooks.com/incident/431887#a5e906367bd981c2adb5b666f88979e44328e588f825c7c29b16c85f72793e87 During a regular deploy two of our RDS databases in the ca-central region suffered a spike in connections that weren't closing properly. This caused some page loads to fail or timeout. We restarted processes in order to help close the connections. The system returned to normal after the connections were closed or timed out. We're still investigating the root cause in order to see if there is a way to mitigate this in the future, or if it was just a system or network anomaly.
