Yesterday morning, a Google outage hit Bulgaria and the region, disrupting Search, YouTube, Gmail, and Google Cloud for many users.

At TBISS, none of our clients were affected.

Why?

• Private peering with Google at multiple European cities (Sofia, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, London etc.).
• 30+ active routes to Google via direct peerings and upstreams.
• High-capacity bandwidth channels that prevent congestion, even during outages.
• Our NOC team acted instantly when some routes stayed “up” but stopped working — manually rerouting traffic around 08:00 AM.

The result: uninterrupted service for all TBISS Ltd. clients.

Full transparency:
Clients can check this themselves in the TBISS Partners Portal: partners.tbros.net and the public can see it in our Looking Glass: lg.tbros.net

This incident is a reminder that even the biggest networks can fail — but resilience, redundancy, capacity, and transparency make all the difference.
