Today, internet users from various parts of the world reported serious problems accessing services such as Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), ChatGPT, Spotify, Yandex Music, and even Amazon. Zamon.uz reported on this.
It was reported that the outage was caused by a technical failure in Cloudflare's infrastructure.
Cloudflare is considered a major infrastructure and security provider that manages approximately 20 percent of global internet traffic. As the outages escalated, the company confirmed it was aware of the problem and stated that efforts to resolve it were proceeding rapidly.
According to information, the company had previously notified about scheduled technical work at a data center in Santiago, but to what extent this work contributed to the global outage is not yet clear.
The incident once again demonstrated the critical importance of internet infrastructure stability. Work to fully restore the platforms is currently ongoing.
