We determined that a particular request pattern with poor performance consumed all of a webserver's available resources. This caused our health check to pull that host out of the load-balancing pool. The increased traffic to other hosts caused them to become overwhelmed as well, resulting in a brown-out of the application.
Our team acted quickly and service restored in ten minutes.
There was no impact to customer data during this period. The application is accessible and operating as expected at this time.
