On the 25th of June between 04:05– 04:25, we experienced a Priority One incident on the URU Platform.
Our development team were preparing a change for a release and this particular piece of work required testing on our Standby site. The change was implemented on the standby site successfully. However shortly after our monitoring reported that the URU platform was inaccessible. Once made aware an investigation was carried out and it was identified that the change deployed caused the LIVE URU platform to go down. The change was rolled back and the issue resolved.
The root cause was the change had the incorrect configuration settings and instead of affecting the Standby site it affected the Live site. In the background GBG has been working on automating all steps of deployment and due to this issue we are accelerating this area of the project.
Prevention - GBG to automate this particular area of the deployment piece – Ongoing
We apologise for the inconvenience caused.
