We would like to provide you with an update on the issue some of you are facing regarding the uploading of images for specific EANs. We understand that this issue has been causing inconvenience to you and we are truly sorry for that.
We have since made some significant changes in our processing system which will allow us to handle up to four times the normal amount of EANs. This has definitely sped up the processing of EANs. However if an EAN is new to StorM, it takes longer to handle than EANs that have been seen by StorM before. Which makes it difficult to predict how much longer it will take to catch up completely.
Typically, we can handle up to 100,000 new EANs a day, which is more than suitable. However we've seen in the order of millions of EANs being sent to StorM on Friday, and over the weekend. We were not made aware of any such updates coming from other systems, and as such could not prepare for the amount of data in time.
If we are to assume all updates that are stuck in the processing queue are new EANs, then we'd calculate that it will take some days. However this is unlikely the case, as it's not typical that such a large amount of EANs are created in normal circumstances. Due to this, it's unfortunately very difficult for us to provide an accurate ETA.
We understand that this can be frustrating for you and we want to thank you for your patience and understanding through this difficult time. Our team is working round the clock to resolve this issue, and we will continue to monitor the situation closely.
Please be assured that we are doing everything in our power to fix this issue as quickly as possible. Thank you for your continued support and please feel free to reach out to us if you have any further issues that we can help with.
