iTWire has already reported extensively on the outage here, here and here. According to Nick Rockwell, Fastly's Senior Vice President of Engineering and Infrastructure, in a blog post a few hours ago, "We experienced a global outage due to an undiscovered software bug that surfaced on June 8 when it was triggered by a valid customer configuration change. We detected the disruption within one minute, then identified and isolated the cause, and disabled the configuration. Within 49 minutes, 95% of our network was operating as normal.
