I guess we know what steam uses (the store at least).
- xNevo 7y agoNo issues for me. Maybe they have a failover mechanism?
- FPGAhacker 7y agoyeah, maybe it was coincidence. seems to be back up for me as well: https://steamstat.us https://steamstat.us
- colinbartlett 7y agoI don't know about Steam, but I know Apple must use Google Cloud: https://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/ https://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/
- djsumdog 7y agoGuess they don't eat their own dog food; no racks of proprietary Apple servers anywhere (unless they somehow run Darwin images in Google Cloud)
- londons_explore 7y agoCan't tell if you know the answer to your own question and just can't talk about it due to NDA...
- runlevel1 7y agoApple runs Linux on the vast majority of the servers behind their cloud offerings.
- gowld 7y agoLess than 1% of users are affected Is there any reason to presume these statuses are correlated? Apple's issue is > Users may be experiencing slower than normal performance with this service.
- colinbartlett 7y agoI'm just assuming they are because it's been previously reported that Apple uses GCP (and also AWS). https://techcrunch.com/2018/02/27/apple-now-relies-on-google-cloud-platform-and-amazon-s3-for-icloud-data/ https://techcrunch.com/2018/02/27/apple-now-relies-on-google...
- kalleboo 7y agoCould be the only users who were affected were ones caught right in the failover between redundant clouds
