Unplanned Outage
Incident Report for Anaplan
Postmortem

On April 21st at 14:20 UTC, Anaplan experienced a platform outage impacting users in our Santa Clara data center. This service disruption was caused by a brief network interruption, which prevented users from logging into the platform. We have investigated the cause of this interruption, and have determined that this was a result of a service interruption experienced by one of our service providers due to severed physical connections within their infrastructure. Connectivity to the platform was restored automatically with a switch over to a redundant network device. We have identified steps to resolve this issue and mitigate future occurrences. We understand the impact to your experience when interruptions occur, and we are working diligently to improve our systems and processes to avoid further issues. We appreciate your patience, and as always thank you for being a valued Anaplan customer.
