11:30 AM- Amazon.com and S3 are down!
- yaacovtp 19y agoUmm...it's working just fine for me. Update: Still working fine 2:48 eastern. My s3 files and amazon.com.
- smock 19y agowell, 'ping amazon.com' is not returning from two different locations for me. 'ping google.com' on the other hand is just as reliable as always. smugmug.com is also down, for me, which i seem to recall heavily uses the amazon services. maybe its some local routing issues.
- sabat 19y agoIt's 11:33 PDT. Amazon is up. Can't speak for S3.
- gibsonf1 19y agoDrudge Report is down (11:30 AM)
- jasonyan 19y agoAll the recommendations Amazon is showing me are from things I was looking at years ago.
- walesmd 19y ago12:00 Pacific - all up
- BitGeek 19y agoAmazon's uptime is not that great. In fact, Amazon is probably one of the worst run "engineering" companies around. They hire bright people (generally) they just don't make them managers. Before I left, my manager (after a reorg) was a totally incompetant jerk whose prior training was a degree in "criminal justice". He knew nothing about software development, and had been at amazon his whole career- 7 years managing programmers. I am amazed that they have only a few days of downtime a year. I wouldn't be using S3 myself, except that (contrary to advertisements) its not run on the same "proven" infrastructure as their ecommerce platform-- but a new one built by a seperate team, and that team isn't hobbled by the incompetance that has built up over the years on the ecommerce engineering side.
