Read more I’m one of the operators of rubygems.org. Here’s what’s been happening over the past week, and a temporary change we’re making as a result. For the past seven days, rubygems.org has been under sustained bot traffic from many different sources scraping data from every published gem. The volume has been large enough to force the site offline while we respond. The bots are deliberately bypassing the Fastly cache, hitting our origin servers directly. The primary target has been our language locale pages, the translated versions of rubygems.org. Unfortunately, the locale system wasn’t designed to cache easily through a CDN. To protect site stability, we’re temporarily disabling language support while we rearchitect how locale pages are cached. We’ll restore language support as soon as we have caching in place that can handle this volume. Thank you for your patience. P.S. if you need gem and version data for a project, we publish regular database exports at https://rubygems.org/pages/data. We strongly recommend using those instead of scraping rubygems.org directly. Show less
