    GitHub suffers nearly 8-hour outage affecting core services

    GitHub experienced a large-scale outage from 13:28 to 21:15 UTC on August 17, 2026, lasting 7 hours 47 minutes and affecting Issues, Pull Requests, API, Actions and Copilot. GitHub attributed the incident to Istio sidecar concurrency saturation, autoscaling that monitored only main services and ignored sidecars, central load balancer saturation with four HAProxy nodes exhausting flow limits, and a Visual Studio Code client retry defect that inflated Copilot token traffic to about 10 times normal. Most services recovered around 16:36 UTC, GitHub Actions at 18:03 UTC, and Copilot Token Service last.
