DigitalOcean VPC operations recovered while connectivity stayed up
DigitalOcean says a global VPC management disruption began at about 08:48 UTC on 5 October. Creating or deleting VPC peerings, VPC Native DOKS clusters and Private Network Connections could be delayed or fail. Routes, subnets and cluster-member changes may also have been affected. Existing VPC resources and connectivity remained unaffected.
DigitalOcean implemented a fix, cleared pending operations and says the disruption was resolved by 10:29 UTC. It reported stable operations at 12:13 UTC.
