Our transatlantic network between Baltimore and Paris was disrupted by a DDoS from 5:14pm to 7:05pm UTC.
Our technical team intervened to mitigate the problem, and the connection has been fully restored.
Please accept our apologize for the inconvenience.
A network issue did impact ns6.gandi.net, our secondary DNS server.
Thus, it has been re-enabled in less than 10 minutes by our technical team.
We currently analyze the root cause of the problem now.
Sorry for the inconvenience this issue caused to you.
We will proceed to the migration of the hosting emergency console.
This maintenance will occur on Monday, the 23rd of June 2014 CEST (Paris timezone).
It should take a few minutes, the impact will be the connection of the IaaS (VM) emergency console, the PaaS/Simplehosting instances console, and the IaaS statistics on the web control panel.
Sorry for the inconvenience this maintenance may cause to you.
An emergency maintenance will occur on our corporate blogs as the Gandi Bar, the Kitchen, Open.gandi.net, Pypo.gandi.net, and our AS website too (Autonomous System 29169).
The blogs and websites will be unreachable for a few minutes.
The maintenance window will take place between 11PM and 12PM, on Wednesday 18th of June 2014 CEST (Paris).
Two of our links between FR and US are down. Due to that, performance is a bit degraded (more latency than usual).
Our team is working on it.
Update: The issue has been resolved.
Our operations team will perform an emergency maintenance on storage units today, Monday 9 June 2014.
Following the discovery of an intermittent but serious network issue, Gandi teams have determined that a rolling maintenance will be necessary.
We regret that, while most of the affected systems will simply require migration and no interruption in service, some will almost certainly require restarting. We will endevor to make these interruptions as short as possible, and only perform them when absolutely necessary.
We are starting with dc0 (Paris) this week. We will proceed on to dc2 (Luxembourg) on Monday, June 9.
The issue is not detected on dc1 (Baltimore) at the moment but, if necessary, we will proceed to fix it there. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
