Summary: Increased latency in Asia region for requests involving reverse-geocode

Description: Our engineering team has identified the cause of issue, and keep working to manage the capacity to improve the latency.

To clarify which requests are affected:

  • they are requests sent to Google servers in the Asia region;
  • they are mostly requests sent with lat-lng coordinates as input parameters that will be geocoded to a map feature. For example: Geocoding API, Directions API, Distance Matrix API requests sent with lat-lng parameters.

If you have any questions or needs which are specific to your use of the Google Maps APIs, please create a Maps APIs support case: https://console.cloud.google.com/google/maps-apis/support

We will provide more information by Monday, 2023-04-10 23:30 US/Pacific.

Diagnosis: None at this time.

Workaround: None at this time.

Summary: Increased latency in Asia region for requests involving reverse-geocode

Description: An attempt at mitigation reduced latency but also triggered an increase in server errors between 2023-04-10 20:09 and 2023-04-10 20:19 US/Pacific. The measure has been reverted, reducing the error rate and latency back to previous level.

Our engineering team is continuing its investigations.
