  Recent outages were reported earlier in the week. (ObRandom: I run a service that wraps route53 with git integration, at https://dns-api.com/ https://dns-api.com/ )

  We switched baremetrics.io over to AWS/Route53 as well. It didn't take long (NS switch might still be propagating) but not having ALIAS support is a bit of a drag.
