## Was the SambaNova API down on September 30, 2026?

Not attributably. 1 multi-region failure(s) of SambaNova coincided with failures of other providers, so the cause sat above SambaNova and is not blamed on it. SambaNova's status page lists nothing that day.

| 07:00-07:00 | host probes | eu-hetzner us-central | <5 min | 2 | unattributed |
