Database failover caused brief 1 minute outage

Incident Report for Dropbox Sign and Fax

Resolved

At 1:47pm PDT (4:47pm EDT) a database failover occurred, causing the site to issue HTTP-5xx messages for the next minute. This was an unplanned failover, but the system responded as it should and came back into usable state without human intervention. However, API consuming customers may have received HTTP-5xx codes during this interval.
