We have temporarily restricted new Temporal Cloud namespace creation across few GCP regions due to compute capacity constraints. Impacted regions are us-central1, us-east4 and europe-west3. Existing namespaces continue to operate normally. For details, available alternatives, and how to request an exception, see https://docs.temporal.io/evaluate/cloud/regions#gcp-capacity-restriction

Temporal Cloud·Elevated connection resets for some GCP namespaces
Between October 6 and October 15, 2026, some clients connected to GCP-hosted namespaces may have seen intermittent TCP connection resets. SDK retries limited the impact and there is no ongoing impact.

Temporal Cloud·Elevated error rates for cross-region traffic between US AWS regions
Between 18:41 and 18:54 UTC on October 9, 2026, cross-region traffic to and from AWS us-east-1, us-east-2, and us-west-2 may have seen increased error rates. The issue has been resolved.
Follow Temporal Cloud
Your coding agent knows when Temporal Cloud is down, and tells you when a failure is theirs, not yours. You can also get Temporal Cloud incidents in a feed reader or in Slack.
Install the outages.live MCP server, so that when something breaks you can tell if the cause is a provider we depend on and not my code. It reads the official status pages of cloud, AI, payment and developer providers and gives you their incidents as MCP tools.
Add it as a remote MCP server named "outages" at https://outages.live/mcp (Streamable HTTP, no authentication), with your CLI command or your MCP config file.
Then:
1. Make sure it connects and shows the tools get_provider, list_feed and send_feedback.
2. Call get_provider with "temporal" and tell me if Temporal Cloud has a problem right now.
3. From now on, when a call to a third-party service fails or becomes slow, call get_provider for that service before you change my code.Paste this into any coding agent. It adds the server with its own MCP setup.
