Kakao suffers worst server outage, with no complete recovery in sight
“The Pangyo data center is our main data facility that operates around 32,000 servers, but only one third of them – 12,000 servers – have been restored,” Yang Hyun-seo, a Kakao vice president, said during a press conference held in the afternoon.
“It usually takes less than 20 minutes to restore all of the servers, but the extent of server losses is just so massive,” he added, declining to say how long it would take for KakaoTalk and other affiliated services to return to normal.
