Is there at least one case when whole region went down ;)) ?
- withinboredom 4y agoAt least once, in 2012? I remember because just two days before we had fully switched over to AWS and hadn’t done multi-region yet. We got our first downtime in 10 years and there was nothing we could do, unlike when we had the servers in a colo. We were at the mercy of Amazon. After that, we moved everything back to real physical servers.
- samspenc 4y agoPer the spreadsheet here https://awsmaniac.com/aws-outages/ https://awsmaniac.com/aws-outages/ : There seem to have been multiple "full" outages in 2011-12 in AWS' us-east-1 region, which, granted, is the oldest AWS region and likely has a bunch of legacy stuff. By "full" outages I mean that a few core services fell over but the entire region become inaccessible due to those core failures.
- pojzon 4y agoIts over 10 years ago tho. Are there any RECENT full region outages ? Im forseeing a full downtime in Frankfurt this winter tho. Germany is in really bad position when it comes to electricity.
