UK heatwave takes down clouds
 

What do you expect?

Britain, which is famous for its rain, is having a few problems with its clouds as a heatwave grips the country.

As temperatures reached 40 degrees, UK cloud services and servers hosted by Google and Oracle dropped offline due to cooling issues.

Datacenters looked at the temperatures and refused to work or were powered off to avoid long-term damage, causing some resources, services, and virtual machines to became unavailable.

This took down some websites. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure resources were offline, including networking, storage, and compute provided by its servers in the south of UK.

In a statement Oracle said: "As a result of unseasonal temperatures in the region, a subset of cooling infrastructure within the UK South (London) Data Centre has experienced an issue. As a result some customers may be unable to access or use Oracle Cloud Infrastructure resources hosted in the region."
