Hi folks,
We had issues with our old fallback media storage server (the one
we're replacing on Monday [1]), causing cascading issues on the
cluster, starting around 5PM UTC. The outage affected editors, as well
as readers viewing uncached pages. Everything should be back to
normal.
Thanks to Domas/Asher/Ariel/Leslie/Jeremy/CT and anyone else who helped.
Erik
