Elevated connection failures in Japan

Incident Report for LiveKit

Resolved

Users connecting to our Japan region experienced elevated connection failures between approximately 18:18 and 18:43 UTC, caused by a network disruption affecting connectivity between our Tokyo data centres. Connectivity was restored by 18:43 UTC.

Update (July 7): After the initial recovery, one replacement media server in Tokyo came online serving only IPv6. From approximately 22:00 UTC on July 6, connections routed to this server failed for clients on networks without IPv6 connectivity. The server was removed from service at 10:30 UTC on July 7, and connection success rates in Japan have returned to normal.
