It’s not just you, Google and many other web services were hit with a partial outage

If you’re struggling with Google services right now, you’re not alone as it appears that a partial outage is affecting many of the company’s various apps and services.

As of roughly 2:25pm ET/11:25am PT, many Google services are experiencing what appears to be a partial outage. Growing reports of problems with Google Home/Nest, Cloud, Firebase, and many other systems appear to be affected.

Outages are being reported across DownDetector for Google.com, Cloud, Nest, Meet, Drive, Maps, YouTube, Gmail, and Gemini, among others. We are not yet seeing many issues outside of intermittent Nest/Home problems, but reports are wide across social media for Google Cloud-related outages that affect other online services. Meanwhile, Amazon Web Services were also thought to partially down, while Cloudflare also seems to be in a partial outage.

Google has yet to show these outages via its various status dashboard pages for Workspace, Cloud, or Search. Cloudflare has confirmed some ongoing issues that started within the past hour.

We’re monitoring the situation and will update this article as more information is available.


Update 12:45pm: Google’s services appear to largely be coming back online, as reports on DownDetector are starting to lessen. The company has also acknowledged the outage across Workspace and Cloud products, with Meet being the only Workspace product affected. On Google Cloud, though, “multiple” products are experiencing issues, but Google has identified the “root cause” as of 12:41pm PT.

AWS has still not confirmed any outages, while Cloudflare says that its services are also recovering.

Update 1:15pm: As services continue to come back online, Cloudflare confirmed to NewGeekGuide that today’s outage was due to “a limited number of services” that use Google Cloud.

Update 7:30pm: All services appear to be back to normal. Speaking to NewGeekGuide, Amazon confirmed that there was no outage to its systems. Cloudflare has also since published a breakdown of the outage on its blog.
