Identified Causes

Notification System Failure

80%

The automated system responsible for detecting and alerting on service outages may have malfunctioned, failed to trigger, or experienced a delay in sending notifications.

Delayed or Missed Outage Detection

Our internal monitoring systems may have taken an unusually long time to detect the service degradation or outage, or the detection threshold was not met until much later.

Communication Channel Issue

50%

While the outage was detected and a notification was sent, there might have been an issue with the specific communication channel used (e.g., email server problems, SMS gateway failure) preventing the user from receiving it.

Service Outage Not Triggering Alerts

40%

The specific nature of the outage might have bypassed the conditions that trigger our automated alert system, leading to a silent failure from a notification perspective.
