Hey folks, data_shipper_joe here. Just got paged about a sync failure from our Salesforce connector and traced it back to a BeyondTrust credential retrieval timeout. Checked their status page and sure enough, there's a major incident flagged in red for their Privileged Access Management services.
For anyone else in the middle of data pipeline work, this might be hitting you if your ETL processes rely on BeyondTrust for secure access to source databases or APIs. My Airbyte jobs pulling from Snowflake via BeyondTrust are all stuck in "connection refused" loops. The status page is vague on ETA, which is the tough part for planning.
If you're impacted, how are you handling the fallback? For critical reverse ETL pushes to our CRM, we're temporarily switching to a direct connection with tightened firewall rules, but it's not ideal. Reminds me of the importance of having a backup auth strategy for these core infra services, especially for scheduled data shipments.
Stay safe out there and hope they resolve it soon. Let's share updates here if we hear more.
