AWS status page is all green. http://status.aws.amazon.com/ http://status.aws.amazon.com/

  Just for the record, our company has found that Amazon occasionally omits incidents from their status page, though I doubt they could get away with omitting something this significant.

    All of the cloud providers have an incentive to downplay incidents and only post them to the status page when they're really bad. The bar is pretty high to get something on there.

      I mean, they outline them in their fineprint. Amazon doesn't consider the unavailability of 1 EC2 availability zone an outage because their position is that you should be architecting around that. 2 or more AZ outages in the same region and it'll show up on their status page IIRC.

        You can tell who grew up in the XHTML era rather than SGML or HTML5.

  I've heard that the Doppler effect https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_effect https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_effect is responsible for AWS status page to show up green perennially. On a serious note, why would AWS admit that it's services were not quite working well and subject itself to potential liabilities. AWS reacts shamelessly even when your EC2 instance goes down on it's own.
