The connection with our backend ( 
https://clientaccount-dot-oa-staging.appspot-preview.com ) stopped . If you 
look into the jsonPayload of the trace provided , it says 
“failed_to_connect_to_backend” so it means that our backend seems to be not 
processing the request arriving from the http load balancer. 

This is weird , because we didn’t change our stack and it was working days 
before of the date reported.

Could you tell us what happened , our provide some logs to review with our 
team.

Thanks for your support
