What our independent monitoring saw

Our checks of WP Engine's public login and customer-facing pages kept responding during this incident, so the problem was most likely inside the product (for example a specific feature, region or integration) rather than a full site outage.

Other outages around the same time

Significant incidents other vendors reported within 12 hours of this one.
