At least 13 Google Cloud services experienced outages shortly before 2 p.m. ET across the U.S., Europe, Asia, and more, a Google Cloud status page stated Thursday afternoon, June 12. “We are experiencing service issues with multiple GCP products,” the status page reads. “Our engineering team continues to investigate the issue.”
