A subsea cable fault outside our network removed one transatlantic path. Traffic ran on the remaining paths with a round trip 9 ms higher than usual for 3 hours 12 minutes, until the cable owner completed the repair.
A configuration change slowed responses from two Paris resolvers for 7 minutes. We rolled the change back and now release resolver changes to one site first.
