Summary

Inngest reported two service disruptions on October 20, 2026, from 13:00–13:15 UTC and 15:20–15:35 UTC, during which event submissions could fail or time out while function scheduling, execution, and checkpoint processing experienced delays or elevated latency. The incidents stemmed from lost connectivity between application infrastructure and the database, which stalled database-dependent operations and caused event-ingestion services to exhaust memory and restart. Because those services required a successful database connection during startup, they could not recover while the connectivity issue persisted, turning the dependency failure into periods of event-ingestion unavailability. Connectivity was restored after each disruption, processing resumed, and Inngest stated that all affected services are now operating normally with no customer action required. The company has implemented changes intended to strengthen resilience, reduce the effects of dependency failures, and improve recovery during future connectivity interruptions.
