Did Google run out of disk space? - The Google Outage ( Early report )

About this episode

At 3:47 am PST almost all google services went down including, gmail, youtube, drive, docs, meet, nest , google maps and many more. It took close to an hour to bring them back up. We still don’t know what caused this outage, in this video we will try to make sense from what we have gathered so far. A detailed analysis video will follow once we get a response from google

symptoms

  • Could not sign in to google (account not found)
  • Could not authenticate if you already have a token
  • Services not require authentication also fails to retrieve certain account information (profile, YouTube comments)
  • Guess -> Borg Service that provide authentication, authorization went down, a fix? Storage qouta issue?
