How is the status page not useful ? It's so simple to understand. Green if everything is fine. Green if there are intermittent problems. Green if nothing works

Green if everything is fine. Green if there are intermittent problems. Green if nothing works.
- signifiers 14y agoToo true. Today when Google's App Engine failed hard, they flat out said: "App Engine is currently experiencing serving issues – Python, Java, Go … Oct 26 2012, 07:30 AM-11:59 PM … Current Availability: 55.90%" and showed read/write I/O metrics were spiking through the roof. Their dashboard clearly labeled the relevant icon as the most severe "Service Interruption". I admire that level of transparency.
- kordless 14y agoYeah, was thinking the same thing while looking at all the cool graphs.
- tonybaroneee 14y agoLol, thanks for a good laugh.
- bigiain 14y agoYou left out "Green if everything is working - except the Chaos Monkey. All systems are working properly, but none of them failing randomly 'for your convenience'"
- seldo 14y agoAnd if things are really broken, green with a little "i" icon next to it.
- davnola 14y agoHaha. I'd love someone to release a greasemonkey/userscript for that status page to make degraded service more obvious.
