Google Cloud had a worldwide outage for several hours. Amid a recent string of recent outages among other technology platforms — such as ChatGPT — Google acknowledged its Cloud shutdown and provided an incident report on June 12, 2025. According to Google Cloud’s status site, the platform updated users at 12:41 PT, 3:41 ET on June 12.

Alphabet's Google said on Thursday it had resolved a brief global service disruption on its platforms that affected multiple services such as music streamer Spotify and instant messaging provider Discord.

Any major problems with providers like this will result in lots of your favorite online sites and apps going down. Down Detector on Thursday saw user-reported issues at Twitch, Gmail, Discord, Nintendo Switch Online, Spotify, and dozens more platforms.

Google Cloud services were down and are affecting other sites, according to Replit and Cloudflare.
