Gmail resumes services after global outage

SciTechX. Gmail resumes services after global outage

Email platform Gmail slowly started resuming its services late on Saturday after facing an outage for more than three hours, which impacted millions of users globally. The company said that it could take a few hours before all backlog emails could be delivered.
As per data on reporting website Downdetector.com, the issue occurred roughly around 7.30 PM (IST) and seems to have impacted Gmail users globally. Several users were seen complaining of undelivered emails and an unresponsive Gmail app.
“Downdetector only reports an incident when the number of problem reports is significantly higher than the typical volume for that time of day,” the reporting site mentioned.
In a status update, Google said that email delivery had been fixed by its engineers, however, the delivery of backlog emails could take a few hours. “Mitigation is currently underway and email delivery is no longer failing, however Google engineering team is now working through the backlog of undelivered messages and expect all messages to be delivered in the next few hours,” Google told.
