Fastly fixes CDN glitch that caused Amazon, Reddit, Spotify, other popular websites to go down

Update: As of 7 pm IST on 8 June, Fastly CDN services are now back up in North America, South America, India, Europe, Asia/Pacific, and South Africa. As per Fastly’s Status page, its Edge Cloud services, Fastly Systems are now also operational.  A glitch at Fastly, a popular CDN provider, on Tuesday, left websites like Twitch, Amazon, Spotify, Reddit, HBO Max, Quora, PayPal, Vimeo, the New York Times, BBC, Financial Times, UK government website, and a few others, facing an outage. This was first reported by Financial Times. Fastly has also updated its Status page confirming that it is facing an outage. “We’re currently investigating potential impact to performance with our CDN services,” Fastly has said.

We identified a service configuration that triggered disruptions across our POPs globally and have disabled that configuration. Our global network is coming back online. Continued status is available at https://t.co/RIQWX0LWwl

Over 21,000 Reddit users have reported an issue with the website so far, and over 2,000 users have reported troubles with Amazon, as per Downdetector.com. Since 4 pm IST on 8 June, there has also been a spike in issues reported about Google.
