Google also posts detailed postmortems for their more significant outages.

Some examples:

https://status.cloud.google.com/incident/cloud-networking/18...

https://status.cloud.google.com/incident/cloud-pubsub/19001

https://status.cloud.google.com/incident/cloud-networking/18...

https://status.cloud.google.com/incident/cloud-networking/18...

https://status.cloud.google.com/incident/compute/18012

Given that this was a multi-region outage that lasted several hours and impacted a substantial number of services, I'd expect a detailed postmortem to follow.



I hope one of the things Google learns in the post mortem is that the next day summary should clearly include that a full post mortem is coming in the next few days or however long.

Half the people in this thread are overlooking that fact and going into outrage mode.
