One interesting thing I've noticed from this (not sure if this is just my experience or if others noticed as well) but none of the ads seem to be impacted by this. Certainly makes me wonder if those are on a more prioritized and entirely separate infra and SLA that is designed to be more resilient and highly available.

But given that Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp would seem to have vastly different caching and security requirements - its hard to believe.
Is any of this architecture publicly documented?

#29Noticed it this morning (~2 hours ago) on WhatsApp, voice messages weren't working, and still aren't. So, code deploy or server configuration change?
