What happened to that 99.99% availability? Either way this just got posted at reddit.com/r/sysadmin which might be useful to some for tracking error rate: https

  Their SLA guarantees 99.9% on a monthly basis. The 99.99% mentioned on the product page isn't guaranteed at all. As for what happened, my money is on this: https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2015/08/amazon-s3-introduces-new-usability-enhancements/ https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2015/08/amazon-s3... > You can now increase your Amazon S3 bucket limit per AWS account... Amazon S3 now supports read-after-write consistency for new objects added to Amazon S3 in US Standard region. The 100 bucket limit used to be an absolute, unchangeable hard limit - rare for AWS and thus likely something deep in the architecture from S3 being one of their first services - so I suspect the lifting of that limit involved some fairly major changes to the backend.

    They actually would let you increase that, but only up to a certain point and only if you specifically requested it. I don't see them mention the absolute ceiling being lifted, so that is probably still in place somewhere. I'd wager it's more likely that read-after-write change.
