    Capacity constraints in GCP us-central1 may delay or fail some task executions

    Started 1 day ago Β· Oct 6, 2026 Β· 3:33 AM UTC

    We are currently seeing a capacity shortage in the Google Cloud (GCP) `us-central1` region. As a result, some Deployments running in this region may experience delays when scaling up worker nodes and pods. Some tasks may remain in a queued state for longer than usual while waiting for compute capacity. In some cases, tasks that stay queued beyond their configured timeout may fail. **Recommended workaround:** Configuring automated task retries (for example, setting `retries` and a `retry_delay` on your tasks or in your DAG's `default_args`) will help tasks recover automatically once capacity becomes available. <https://www.astronomer.io/docs/learn/rerunning-dags#automatically-retry-tasks> We are working to address the issue and keep this page posted as we have more updates.

Common questions

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is Astro down today?

    Check the status badge at the top of this page for the current status. Pulsetic follows the official status page and cross-references it with user reports to give you the most accurate picture.

  • How often does Astro go down?

    Based on our 90-day data, we've recorded 13 incidents, of which 6 were major or critical. The median resolution time is 3h 8m.

  • How are outages detected?

    Pulsetic follows the official status page and records the incidents the provider posts there. Crowdsourced user reports and Pulsetic's own synthetic checks add an early warning, which can surface an issue before the official status page mentions it.

  • Is it down for everyone or just me?

    The outage map and region breakdown help answer this. If reports are concentrated in one area it may be regional; if hotspots appear globally it's a widespread outage. Submit your own report to help others understand the scope.

  • What does "never acknowledged" mean?

    "Never acknowledged" means Pulsetic recorded a service disruption from user reports and its own checks, but the official status page never posted an incident for it. This is one of the core reasons teams use third-party monitoring alongside official status pages.
