- Application issues - Did you deploy code recently? If so, try reverting code to a previous tag that works properly.
- Caching issues: Did you clear Varnish cache recently? Clearing Varnish cache can cause performance issues as the cache rebuilds. Consult caching overview documentation for more information and related links: https://support.acquia.com/hc/en-us/articles/360005212334-Caching-overview
- External calls: If your website is retrieving information from an external service, check to see that you have timeouts implemented in your application to prevent future downtime.
