That's the promise but in reality every software has bugs, including managed services.

- diminoten 8y agoNot really, not anything like what you're describing. 12 outages since 2011, and none of them are anything like what you're describing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_Amazon_Web_Services https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_Amazon_Web_Service...
- bsagdiyev 8y agoWe've moved from on-prem to AWS fully and we see random issues all the time while their status page shows all green, so I feel you probably have a small amount of resources in use with them or something, because what you're saying doesn't jive with what we see daily. I see you've also copy-pasted your response to other comments too, so I'll do the same with my response.
- diminoten 8y agoI don't feel like copy/pasting all of our comments to each other, so I'd appreciate it if you didn't do that, thanks.
- bsagdiyev 8y agoThen don't do it yourself. You're dead set on ignoring people whose experience is different than yours, wrapping yourself in an echo chamber of sorts and telling others they are wrong.
- diminoten 8y agoI'm not dead set on anything, I'm trying to have conversations with multiple people, not create an immutable record. And I don't think you know what an echo chamber is if you think one person can create one alone...
- maxxxxx 8y agoThis is not about outages. There are many more things that can go wrong besides outages.
- diminoten 8y agoSorry but if you don't know how to use/manage your AWS stack, that's not on AWS, that's on you. A bad workman blames his tools.
- goostavos 8y agoBro, what're you so upset about in this thread? That people had different experiences than you with AWS..?
- deleted 8y ago[deleted]
- diminoten 8y agoI'm not upset, I'm simply pointing out that AWS isn't the problem in any of these examples, it's the various commenter's lack of understanding about how to work in AWS that's caused these problems. I don't think anyone is actually upset, do you? I certainly hope I haven't upset anyone... :/
- Dylan16807 8y agoWhen your hammer snaps in half, you don't blame yourself for not using two hammers. When the tool breaks under correct use, criticize the tool. Maybe the user should also have redundancy. The tool is still failing!
- diminoten 8y agoThis analogy is what snapped in half, not the hammer. It's more like if your hammer says right on it, "YOU NEED A SECOND HAMMER" and this is true of all hammers, it's still not the hammer's fault you didn't bring a second hammer.
