Google apps, Snapchat suffers major outage, recover
Google apps like YouTube, Gmail and Nest along with photo-messaging app Snapchat and other web services suffered major outages across the US and some parts of Europe.
The root cause of the outage was traced back to issues with Google’s Cloud service that powers other apps along with the search engine giant’s own web services, The Verge reported on Sunday,
The company, whose Cloud solutions are used by other apps like Discord, Snapchat and Shopify, blamed that “high levels of network congestion in the eastern US”, for the issues.
