Dear Cliq users,
We have encountered an unprecedented issue in our messaging servers. The details of the issue are as follows:
- Impacted users : 1/4th of users in US DC (users who access cliq services through cliq.zoho.com)
- Issue detection time : 4:22 AM PDT [4:52 pm IST], 19 July 2023
- Issue : Unresponsive UI, Inaccessability of chats
- Cause : Slow responsivenes in two of our messaging servers due to an unforeseen surge in requests.
We are currently working on resolving it with high priority. We will provide an update here in 30 mins. We apologize for any inconvenience caused.
Update 1 [8:39 am PDT, 19th July]: We have identified specific functions within the system that were causing issues in sending message. To ensure proper functionality, we have implemented restrictions on these functions. We are pleased to report that we have observed improvements in message delivery as a result. We will continue monitoring the situation and provide you with an update in the next 60 minutes. Thank you for your patience.

The good news is that our dedicated team is actively working on resolving this matter, and as a result, Cliq services should now be stable for most users.

Rest assured, our team is diligently addressing this remaining concern, and we will provide you with another update on the progress within the next hour.
Update 5 [6:59 am PDT, 20th July]: Our team has been diligently working on a patch to address the issue with our servers.

Analysis report:
On July 19, 2023, at 3:49 AM PDT, there was a problem in our network which caused a drop in live connections between clients and servers. As a result of this, our clients were creating new connections, where as the backend servers were trying to repair the
existing connections. This caused a surge in two of our servers, which resulted in partial downtime.
During the partial downtime the followings functionalities would have been affected.
- Chat related functionalities
- Propagation of user status
- Notifications
To fix this issue temporarily, some of the internal functionalities were throttled. This allowed us to control the surge of connections and process the load.
Counter measures :
- To prevent this from happening again, the logic for repairing failed connections has been modified, so that no surges should be observed in any of our servers. We hope to push it to production as soon as possible.
- We are also working on segregated processing of functionalities to prevent the availability issues due to heavy load.
Thank you once again for your understanding.
Best regards,
Poorvik
