Amazon was down
Amazon is down 11:49 AM west coast
- WestCoastJustin 13y agoAWS seems to be okay via this status dashboard. Nothing on the Amazon twitter feed either [2]. [1] http://status.aws.amazon.com/ http://status.aws.amazon.com/ [2] https://twitter.com/amazon https://twitter.com/amazon UPDATE: Site appears to be responding now, but there is a maintenance message. AWS dashboard also shows the following updates: AWS Management Console: 12:14 PM PDT We are currently experiencing elevated error rates for the AWS Management Console Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (N. Virginia): 12:11 PM PDT We are investigating increased API error rates and latencies for tagging related API calls in the US-EAST-1 region.
- goeric 13y agoIt's not. We're having issues with one of our EC2 instances and this is clearly effecting other sites. It's very unnerving that their service health dashboard isn't reporting any issues. EDIT: It just now reported an issue on EC2 N. Virginia. Still a little disappointed that it's not real-time.
- jtboehm 13y agoIt could be either certain services limited to Virginia, or certain sites within the region -- my instance is hosted in Virginia, and while very basic, has remained up throughout.
- itafroma 13y agoI've been getting 454 Temporary authentication failure errors from the SES SMTP gateway, which is in US-EAST-1. Edit: back up for me; SMTP gateway is authenticating and emails are sending out again.
- fideloper 13y agoSame here, I don't believe emails are getting sent using SES.

- rabidonrails 13y agoAWS Console icon is now red (i.e. Service disruption)
- aalbertson 13y agoNothing on the @awscloud twitter either. Really sad support. https://twitter.com/awscloud https://twitter.com/awscloud
- aalbertson 13y agoAWS console is also down. We can't login and others are reporting the same issue. Our hosted instances and infrastructure however is online and functioning.

- powera 13y agoIt appears that AWS SES is down right now as well.
- richo 13y agoI've been struggling to light up new ec2 instances via the API: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Response><Errors><Error><Code>Unavailable</Code><Message>The service is unavailable. Please try again shortly.</Message></Error></Errors><RequestID>d063a1f7-9fa9-41bb-8792-xxxxxxxxxxxxxx</RequestID></Response>
- druiid 13y agoSheesh. This makes what, the fourth or fifth time this year so far.. and for an extended period of time to boot. I wonder if this is linked to how they do their deployments, or something else (Everyone has access to deploy to the live site last I heard).
- dxm 13y agoEvery developer does have the ability to deploy to production and roughly 0.001% of deployments cause an outage, but this is a company where the mean time between deployments on an average weekday is 11.6 seconds.

- patman81 13y agoAmazon.com is still down for me, but http://www.amazon.de http://www.amazon.de is running fine.

- martin-adams 13y agoWell, AWS console being down is certainly more of an impact to me than amazon.com.
- ymmy 13y agoThe console is working if you are already logged in. Although loggin requires going through www.amazon.com.
- hansgill 13y agoEC2 is ok for me SES has gone to the shitter
- hansgill 13y agoFunny how there is a widely reported problem and everything is green on AWS health check site http://status.aws.amazon.com/ http://status.aws.amazon.com/
- rabidonrails 13y agoJust reported: Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (N. Virginia) Increased API Error Rates Update: AWS Management Console: Elevated error rates as of 2:15 CST
- hansgill 13y agoConsole is not the only thing faltering. Our system is not able to send any emails using SES
- fideloper 13y agoSame here, can't send SES emails via the API (altho SMTP works for us)
- generj 13y agoI hate how they weasel out and display a green checkbox, but with a tiny little "i" for information on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (N. Virginia). http://status.aws.amazon.com/images/status1.gif http://status.aws.amazon.com/images/status1.gif I deserve to see something visually distinct if there is a problem. This is purposefully poor UX. If I'm visiting the status page for your site, it's probably because I'm a technical user who suspects something is broken. Don't you dare hide what is broken from me.
- dksidana 13y agoIs Amazon e-com website is dependent on AWS ? I don't think so. Pointers please.
- flyt 13y agoYes, it runs on EC2. Proof: http://youtu.be/dxk8b9rSKOo?t=8m13s http://youtu.be/dxk8b9rSKOo?t=8m13s
- koenigdavidmj 13y agoNow the server is returning a 500, which is a slight bit of progress.

- bbit 13y agoIs this why everything seems slow? Reddit keep failing and I can't log in?
- dksidana 13y agoTheir indian sites http://junglee.com http://junglee.com and https://www.amazon.in/ https://www.amazon.in/ looks perfectly fine.
- noname123 13y agoIf one looks at the intra-day chart of AMZN, you could see the market adjust the pricing of the stock relative to the revenue lost every second due to site down. https://www.google.com/finance?q=amzn&ei=JWwSUuCkE8Lp0QGC5QE; https://www.google.com/finance?q=amzn&ei=JWwSUuCkE8Lp0QGC5QE... compare to SPY, the overall market trend.
- InclinedPlane 13y agoThe interesting thing is that amazon doesn't typically lose orders when the site goes down for a short period, it often just causes people to delay their orders a little.
- Lowgain 13y agoI was just able to log in to the console, looks like it's back
- mickle00 13y agoBack up for me as well. ~45 minutes down?
- jtboehm 13y agoIt's back: 3:33 EST.
- hiccup 13y agoMy EC2 instances are still running fortunately.
- hiccup 13y agoAmazon site seems to be up now.
- gsharma 13y agoAmazon.com is back up for me.
- aalbertson 13y agoAppears to all be back online. - amazon.com = back - aws console = can login and work - SES = queue's have cleared
- generj 13y agoEverything back to normal now, so far as I can tell.
- frik 13y agoAmazon and AWS Console are back online :)
