  • hayfever76 John McCrae (@hayfever76) reported

    @QuinnyPig @awscloud Compare that to the cost of doing that work from a server rack in your office or local data center

  • thecryptodavid David (@thecryptodavid) reported

    @than0s @GCPcloud @awscloud AWS was actually down for about 10 minutes in the same 45 minutes that Google was down today - I was working on a side project using AWS at the time. But I doubt Google uses AWS in any manner.

  • elahieh 💧🔥Richard Bean (@elahieh) reported

    @AWSSupport Anyway, the "customer service rep" "hanging up" on me in the middle of the chat when I could not access my instances should never have happened, no matter what support level I was on. I invite you to just call me and fix this if you like.

  • Ali_Asad_Khan Procrastination King (@Ali_Asad_Khan) reported

    Hey @Google please start using @awscloud so none of your services ever go down ! #googleisdown #YouTubeDOWN

  • lucassilvagc Lucas Silva (@lucassilvagc) reported

    @AWSSupport is Cognito down at this time? Trying to manage my user pool but all I can get right now is a message saying that I don't have permission to get my pools.

  • Crosby87GOAT chris (@Crosby87GOAT) reported

    @WWadeDeVinney @SNFonNBC @awscloud Beating teams like the Giants and Jets soundly looks good until you play a postseason caliber team like Buffalo and the glaring issues are exposed. We all hoped the Baltimore game was bc of scheduling, and Wash was an anomaly. Not the case as proved last night

  • hecksadecimal Hecks A. Decimal (@hecksadecimal) reported

    @AWSSupport Listen RW, I appreciate you reaching out, but folks have been complaining about the console for years and no change has ever made it better, to the point that I am worried whoever looks at the feedback (if they do) will interpret my complaint as “I want this to be more broken!”

  • tangming2005 Ming (Tommy) Tang (@tangming2005) reported

    how can I download the SRA fastq to local HPC from amazon aws? @chris_osulliva are the fastqs in the free bucket now? @gali_bai and I have some problems with the scATAC-seq fastq converted by fastq-dump (old problem). Thanks!

  • elahieh 💧🔥Richard Bean (@elahieh) reported

    @AWSSupport What?! I screenshotted that host in this very thread. You seem to be reacting without reading. I got an API Error so that I could not access my instances, despite two status pages saying everything was fine.

  • LAdministrator linuxCodingTrading (@LAdministrator) reported

    @RachelDines @awscloud due to serverless, no problem

  • elahieh 💧🔥Richard Bean (@elahieh) reported

    @AWSSupport Thanks, API errors are fixed, all working and can access my remaining instance. I guess Amazon just has to work on customer service, fair enough rep couldn't see API error on status page but hanging up chat was atrocious.

  • randomfrequency Vincent Janelle (@randomfrequency) reported

    @ryan_maclean @QuinnyPig @awscloud Looks like a flame graph of code I write. All slow.

  • kylnew Kyle Newsome (@kylnew) reported

    Given that a few weeks ago I was figuring out how to create a secure upload flow for images to Amazon S3 for my vapor server, seeing a SwiftUI app now capture data and send it to the server successfully feels like a landmark victory.

    .@awscloud bro wtf it's too late for this Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Oregon)API Error Rates and Latencies

  • webguy97 Bryce Haines (@webguy97) reported

    @awscloud my AMZ Connect is says Initizliation failed and can’t fix it. I didn’t change anything with chrome or anything in general. And any support options have to pay extra for!!? 😡 I didn’t do anything Cc @AmazonHelp @AWSSupport

  • KishanBagaria Kishan Bagaria (@KishanBagaria) reported

    @TejasKumar_ @awscloud was facing exactly this issue, you just saved me a lot of time

  • jlalwani jlalwani (@jlalwani) reported

    @steveroberts_77 @RachelDines @awscloud That's an oversimplification. At that scale, you are guaranteed to have atleast one instance failing at a given time. You need to solve the problem of constant failure. You need to scale up your infrastructure that responds to failure. You need to find ways to sift through l

  • EquusNimbus Marit Hughes (@EquusNimbus) reported

    @AWSSupport For the cases I can find (bc if support doesn't give me a case number, I can't find or respond to it) I do respond on the case with my issues/concerns and give the appropriate star rating as well.

  • r3vsh3ll LostInCloud #PWMCT (@r3vsh3ll) reported

    Hey @awscloud I can't seem to find multi region architecture for Amazon EventBridge? Few articles suggests that EventBridge is resilient by design but nothing concrete. After the recent region outage, I'd like to design multi region but can't seem to find any doco. Please help!

  • kechurchill Keith Churchill (@kechurchill) reported

    @QuinnyPig @awscloud This is beneath you IMO; it might not be 'public' who it is, but this person will be identified (internally at least) and will then have to deal with the realisation they were an object of ridicule by strangers on the internet, from a mere well-intentioned professional error.

  • Shivaranjani_R Shivaranjani Ramakrishnan (@Shivaranjani_R) reported

    Cannot believe @Google was down. Maybe they should consider switching from @GCPcloud to @awscloud lmao. #googledown #GoogleServerDown #AWS

  • twbuster buster (@twbuster) reported

    @AWSSupport guys what's wrong with us-west-2? It returns 500 for all requests when I trey to list or create a server. Even your UI has the same issue.

  • brunoborges Bruno Borges (@brunoborges) reported

    @AWSSupport @QuinnyPig Just heard from @AWSSupport that I should go and get a new email to create a new AWS account. And if I have any other outstanding invoice on a 'terminated' account, that I should not pay that because it won't solve the issue.

  • ferricoxide Thomas Jones (@ferricoxide) reported

    @awscloud Y'all might want to delete and repost without the errors.

  • SahandSh3 Sahand Sh (@SahandSh3) reported

    Amazon AWS: down Google Cloud: down Viva @Microsoft @Azure , the only cloud that stays up (with no down time)

  • stephanecastel Stephane Castel (@stephanecastel) reported

    Other than that I’m very impressed. Disclaimer, I do all of my scientific computing “in the cloud” (🙏 @awscloud) so haven’t run into issues of tools not working.

  • MetaLocator MetaLocator (@MetaLocator) reported

    @AWSSupport seeing "An internal error" on the EC2 console in US-WEST-2

  • sullivanandwolf Sullivan+Wolf Design (@sullivanandwolf) reported

    Seems like @gmail is messed up. Certified addresses coming back as no such user. And @awscloud may be whacked too as an associates #MLS #IDX feed databases are down.

  • steveroberts_77 Steve Roberts (@steveroberts_77) reported from Christleton, England

    @RachelDines @awscloud With the correct infrastructure as code routines this should not really be an issue - buying and racking the servers is for @awscloud though!!
