Agreed. 99.97% uptime for May is excellent. I've worked with a lot of enterprise systems (to include military!) and we would love to have that high % of uptime.

- icebraining 14y agoMy cheap shared hosting provider has 99.98% this month, and they give you a free month if it goes below 99.8%, which has only happened once in two years. Somehow Heroku doesn't seem that great to me.
- pxlpshr 14y agoCmon. Your cheap shared hosting doesn't compare when it comes to scale and features.
- icebraining 14y agoYes, but it doesn't compare when it comes to price either, considering a single Dyno costs $36/month when I'm paying $44/year for the whole plan. (And that comes with excellent support - for example, I asked if they were planning to offer Python and they said "Sure, just gives us a couple of days to set up a machine with Python for you", even when I was only interested in the cheapest plan). I know they don't serve the same market, but I find it strange that a service that costs an order of magnitude more doesn't have a better uptime than cheap shared hosting.
- davidandgoliath 14y agoPrimarily because in order for amazon to pull a profit, they're not stuffing these systems in high-quality datacenters ;)
- chrisconley 14y agoGoing on last week's outage of 2 hours and last night's of 8 hours, that puts June's uptime at ~98.6%.
- acdha 14y agoOnly if you count small outages which affected a fraction of the customers as affecting the entire service. I had 100% uptime during that period using only the multi-AZ redundancy.
