I ended up buying a second hand MacBook Pro instead of a new one because Apple have stupidly for some reason decided that if you want a more powerful configuration, you have to have a shitty touch bar. It makes no sense, a touch bar and a h

Just to confirm, we are not in any way a competitor to Slack, we are a realtime data delivery platform. The article confirms we use Slack ourselves. See www.ably.io/platform for more info.

Please don't troll and have a look at what Ably actually is. It's data messaging, not user / VoIP / chat messaging. We are in no way a competitor to Slack or ever will be. We deliver a platform realtime data delivery. I

Joel, the point of my article was nothing to do with architecture and using multiple AZs. Of course we use a minimum of two AZs and often three in reach region. The problem is that AWS continued to report the entire region as completely hea

by matt_oriordan 10y ago
This article was NOT about reliance on a single AZ. That was not the point as we use three AZs in most AWS region, and at least two in every region. The point was simply that an entire AZ was down and Amazon continued to report the entire r

For those interested, we wrote a blog post about single points of failure with DNS last Friday when the Dyn attack happened. Our strategy ensures our customers are mostly unaffected by issues like this. See https://blog.ably.io&#
