Obviously it's never good when a service has an outage, but it looks like Sentry's status page reports the actual status which makes a nice change.

  Plus, it's literally the first time I've seen them having an outage over the years so it seems like they're generally doing well on staying up.

    I think this was their Big One: https://blog.sentry.io/2015/07/23/transaction-id-wraparound-in-postgres https://blog.sentry.io/2015/07/23/transaction-id-wraparound-...

      ... from 7 years ago. They've been pretty solid. I've been really happy with Sentry. No muss, no fuss as a vendor. I wish they would buy/bundle a status monitoring tool.

  If even their own operational telemetry were misrepresented, one might have started wondering about the accuracy of what they're reporting to their customers. So, I agree, but it's not like they really had a choice :)

    It's well known that the AWS status page doesn't reflect the actual uptime. Anytime an massive outage is repored here on HN the AWS status page shows all green. Anytime this debate comes up there are two camps of thought -- the AWS camp where "measuring service degradation" is one of the most insanely complex problems that we lesser devs will never understand -- and the other camp is StatusGator a cheap service that seems to be easily able to tell you when one of your services you use is having trouble - including AWS.

      Nevertheless, considering telemetry is Sentry's bread and butter it wouldn't be a good look on them in many a manager's eyes.
