Gmail downtime is rare but can occur for several reasons:
• Server Maintenance: Google occasionally performs maintenance, usually with minimal service impact
• Network Issues: Problems with internet backbone providers or DNS services
• Software Bugs: Updates or deployments that introduce unexpected issues
• Security Incidents: Potential cyberattacks or security breaches requiring immediate action
• Infrastructure Problems: Data center issues, power failures, or hardware malfunctions
Google invests heavily in redundancy and has one of the most reliable email infrastructures in the world, so most outages are brief and limited in scope.
