The Nov. 7 partial disruption involved DeepSeek’s chat interface and two API services. DeepSeek applied a fix and continued checking its impact.

The affected components included Chat Service and two API offerings: DeepSeek V4.1 Flash API service and DeepSeek V4 Pro API service. People trying to use chat saw a notice saying the server was busy and advising them to try again later.

A similar partial disruption affected the same three services on Nov. 3. A separate October outage was larger and lasted nearly five hours.
