There are some downstream / knock on effects going on which can be explained…but I can’t help but wonder if today’s story is bigger than just AWS. AWS saying it was an outage of a “few hours” for DynamoDB and DNS…and that doesn’t line up all that great with what people are reporting in the wild . I’m not trying to start a conspiracy theory, just wondering what the post mortems will tell us, if anything. Obviously the suits want to keep embarrassing fuckups downplayed as much as possible.

Amazon sneases, the whole internet catches a cold.
Im still seeing services up/down the entire day at work. Services that are not even AWS like Azure are slow for some reason (probably businesses failing over to other infa). Its crazy.
None of our in office infa is having issues. Managers are talking about fail-overs all day lol.

Its crazy, we are seeing unrelated services stop sending emails, issues with DNS, all sorts of strange stuff.

Maybe it’s cascade effects? Something depends on something else, which depends on a third thing that depends on AWS for something?

Same with us. Had to reboot/restart a number of things, and resynch clocks.

They want to keep the news of the rally over the weekend as quiet as possible.

games were affected online, plus apps, and then anyone in retail who does inventory, order writing.

When a handful of people own all the companies in the world, the whole world becomes a single point of failure.
