canva.com unavailable
Canva's website was unavailable to users for about 52 minutes after its API gateway cluster collapsed.
Root cause, as stated by Canva
Canva says a network problem at its CDN provider stalled one file of a new editor release, so hundreds of thousands of waiting clients loaded it at once and hit the API gateway with about three times peak load. The gateway, already slowed by a regression in a telemetry library, ran out of memory faster than autoscaling could replace it.

Titles, severity and times are as published on each company's status page. "Published RCA" means the company posted a postmortem on that incident's official page; we link to it and do not reproduce it. Many companies publish root causes on a blog instead, or not at all, so the absence of a link is not evidence that no analysis exists. Severity grading differs between companies and is not comparable across them. This is not a complete record of every outage.
