Cloudflare began scheduled maintenance at its ORD data
center in Chicago today (Friday) at 07:00 UTC. The work remained in progress at
the time of publication.
Cloudflare also announced a separate maintenance window at
its DTW data center in Detroit. The company said it “will be performing
scheduled maintenance in DTW between 09:00 and 13:00 UTC.” No further service
impact details were provided with the notice.
During the Chicago maintenance window, several online
platforms experienced temporary outages. The websites of CFD broker Skilling,
prop firms The5ers and Topstep, and My Funded Futures were briefly
inaccessible. LinkedIn was also affected. As of publishing, access to these
services had been restored.
Cloudflare Maintenance Causes Temporary Network
Disruptions
Cloudflare stated that “scheduled maintenance is currently
in progress” and that it will “provide updates as necessary.”
Traffic from the Chicago location may be rerouted during
this period. This could result in a “slight increase in latency” for users in
the affected region.
Cloudflare also said some customers may experience temporary
service changes. It warned that PNI and CNI customers should prepare for
traffic to fail over to other locations, as “network interfaces in this data
center may become temporarily unavailable.”
No service incidents “beyond the planned maintenance” were
reported at the time of the update.
