On June 12, 2025, Cloudflare and Google Cloud experienced significant outages that affected numerous online services globally. Cloudflare's outage lasted 2 hours and 28 minutes, impacting services such as Workers KV, WARP, Access, Gateway, Images, Stream, Workers AI, Turnstile, and others. The incident was caused by a failure in the underlying storage infrastructure used by Workers KV, which relies partly on a third-party cloud provider. This failure led to high request failure rates across multiple Cloudflare services, with Workers KV requests failing over 90%. Many services, including Cloudflare Dashboard, AutoRAG, Realtime services, and Workers assets, were severely impacted, with error rates peaking at nearly 100% in some cases. Cloudflare acknowledged the incident was due to a dependency on third-party storage and is working on infrastructure improvements to prevent future outages. Meanwhile, Google Cloud experienced outages starting at 10:51 a.m. PT, disrupting services for over five hours. Major platforms such as Spotify, Discord, Snapchat, Etsy, UPS, OpenAI, and others reported issues, with some services experiencing high error volumes. Google confirmed that the outages affected 13 of its cloud services across multiple regions, caused by a failure in its storage infrastructure. Google managed to restore most services by late evening, but some components like Dataflow and Vertex AI still experienced residual impacts. The outages highlight ongoing challenges in cloud infrastructure reliability, with both companies emphasizing ongoing efforts to improve resilience and prevent future disruptions.
