  Seems to be AWS-related. Nothing on their status page yet, but people's personal health dashboards are reporting another networking outage

  Yup, also from Italy status 503

    The search function does not work, and npm install does nothing for me. I'm in Europe.

  CircleCI has problems downloading npm packages either

  Do businesses that run Node.js use some sort of caching proxy to protect from cases like this, or does npm make something like that difficult to implement?

    Generally Docker. We install all required node deps during our docker build to ensure that running the platform does not require npm.

      Makes sense. Using Docker would make sure you can deploy existing software. NPM being down would prevent upgrading libraries or rebuilding the Docker image, but that'd only be a problem if NPM was down for a long time.

      Exactly what I was looking for. The linked page even describes how to configure the npm CLI to default to the company registry.
