Database outage and move to a new database

Monitoring

Our database ran into its daily usage limit during the Timeless 2026 ticket launch, so some pages and admin tools stopped loading. We found what was using it up, fixed that, paused ticket sales and payments so no one could be charged during the problem, and moved everything to a new, separate database.

If you already paid: your payment is safe. Keep your screenshot and Transaction ID and we will confirm your order by email.

Working Sales paused on purpose Database down

One block is one hour. The first outage start is the earliest time we have on record, so the real start may be a little earlier.

Timeline

  1. Fix

    Site switched to the new database

    The website and admin were pointed at the new database. Final checks are running before ticket sales reopen.

  2. Update

    All 624 records copied and checked

    Orders, tickets, payments, admin accounts and settings were copied one by one. Every collection was compared against the original and the counts matched exactly.

  3. Update

    Original database readable again

    The daily limit reset, which let us read everything and begin the copy. Ticket sales stayed paused while we did it.

  4. Update

    Maintenance switch made independent of the database

    The pause can now be turned on or off in seconds, even if the database is down.

  5. Fix

    Maintenance mode released: ticket sales and payments paused

    A maintenance screen replaced checkout so nobody could pay while orders might not be recorded. Customers who had already paid were told to keep their screenshot and Transaction ID.

  6. Fix

    Admin reads cut sharply

    Admin pages now share one recent copy of the data instead of each reading the whole database again.

  7. Outage

    Database over its daily limit again

    The limit was reached again a few hours after it reset.

  8. Fix

    Payments made more forgiving

    Automatic emails, reminders and a ready-for-review queue so a payment is not missed even on a busy night.

  9. Update

    New database prepared

    A separate Firebase project and a safe copy tool were ready, with the database rules locked down.

  10. Update

    Waiting for the daily reset

    The health check confirmed the limit was still used up. The limit resets once a day.

  11. Fix

    Background refreshing stopped

    Admin pages left open in the background were quietly using the database. They now pause when the tab is hidden and refresh less often.

  12. Fix

    First fix: fewer database reads for admin alerts

    The new-order alert check was reading too much. It was reduced.

  13. Outage

    Database over its daily limit

    Our database stopped answering because its free daily usage limit was used up. Some pages and the admin could not load.
