Google Cloud experiencing network degradation in us-central1-b zone

Multiple Google Cloud products in a single availability zone are affected by elevated packet loss and errors.

By The Downtime · Sep 1, 2026 · 4:15 PM ·Updated 6 days ago

Google Cloud's us-central1-b zone is experiencing network service degradation as of Tuesday, 2026-09-01 at 07:41 US/Pacific. The issue is affecting a portion of the zone, while remaining zones in the region are unaffected. Google Cloud is currently investigating and has deployed mitigations; services are beginning to recover.

At least 17 Google Cloud products are impacted, including BigQuery, Cloud SQL, Compute Engine, Google Kubernetes Engine, Cloud Spanner, App Engine, and Cloud Run. Customers are experiencing elevated packet loss and errors.

Google's network engineering team has implemented mitigations and expects to provide updated details by 09:30 US/Pacific on Tuesday. The company is recommending that severely affected customers with services in alternate zones consider failing over, while others with service-layer retries may see successful completions due to only partial zone impact.

This is a developing story. We will update as more information becomes available.
