As of now, Rackspace has not yet confirmed the outage, but several sites affected either posted blogs or tweeted about the outage. Popular tech sites like TechCrunch and Mashable were left affected for a while, according to PC World.
However, Rackspace Cloud System Status blog confirmed the outage. The outage lasted from at least 3:45 PM CST until 4:14 PM CST, according to the blog.
This is a networking issue affecting Cloud Sites in our DFW data center, the blog stated.
According to the blog, the outage was not caused by a problem with its power which was what caused the Rackspace Dallas-Fort Worth outage in June.
