Is Amazon Web Services down?

@JoergSobottka @OracleDatabase @awscloud I get the error when 3 PDBs only are there.

@QuinnyPig @awscloud Still can't seem to create an AMI with gp3. "Error creating AMI: BootForVolumeTypeUnsupported: The gp3 volume type cannot be used for boot volumes. Please use a supported boot volume type: standard, io1, gp2, io2."

@schmutze @awscloud I am sure there are more corner cases, but I am just wondering if it is something that is being worked on. Is there a public GitHub roadmap for issues like this? I know there is one for integrations, but this doesn't necessarily seem to fit there.

Remember that #AWS outage we had in US East Coast last month? I asked @AWSSupport if they had a root cause analysis which at that stage they did not. However, today they reached out to me and shared it. I am probably their smallest customer and bring negligible revenue (1/2)

@googlecloud is SO MUCH better than @awscloud, it is insane. AWS is going down the drain, in the long term they will not win.

@dj_stacktrace @QuinnyPig @awscloud we had a brief issue that prevented gp3 from being used as a boot volume, but we believe it to be fixed now. DM me or open a support case if it's not working for you and we can help

Hey @AWSSupport AWS Workspaces in Oregon is broken by default. I can consistently make new machines, nothing fancy, just make a boring new WSP Windows box, and the machine never lets you login until you reboot it after provisioning.

@QuinnyPig @awscloud Another little glitch is "volume status" always showing "insufficient-data" after gp3 upgrade.

@QuinnyPig @awscloud Now try making an AMI (am-e?) ;-) It looks like they are still figuring out a few issues.

@TAIngalls @awscloud Pretty sure the AMI creation problem is cloud-side (i. e. not an SDK support issue)

@bret_martin @awscloud I just experienced the same issue with not being able to use gp3 volumes when creating an AMI via boto3-1.16.28 / botocore-1.19.28.

EBS gp3 volume type status in @awscloud, today: • Converting gp2 → gp3 works in all regions I tried, even for boot volumes (yesterday, it didn't work for boot volumes) • Creating a gp3-backed AMI doesn't work (API error only lists other volume types as supported for boot)

@awscloud Hello AWS, I have an issue on my AWS account. I just got billed on my free tier account, I thought my card was just to activate my account so why billing me. Cause I didn't even request for it. I need my refund.

Need to deploy app ASAP but lightsail platform is not working @awscloud

@AWSSupport Choosing option 4 for other issues when you dial (833) 662-9873 (the AWS support line) just results in silence. Your phone system appears to be down.

Man is S3 slow as hell for anybody else right now? @awscloud

@awscloud Amazon web srvics console not loading. Is it down?

@jeffbigham @awscloud After having several of our delete requests fail, we just closed our account and made it their problem 😝

@lloydholman @QuinnyPig @awscloud Before, your app can write a new version of an object to S3 and just after read it and receive the old version back. It took time to « synchronize » the S3 partitions. For some apps this was an issue and app dev had to work around that at app level. Now not anymore

@ppatel @jeffbigham @awscloud Google charges me 2 cents per month for having a deactivated app engine (I’m assuming) It seems wrong but also not enough money for me to chase down

@nathankpeck @awscloud It means every support issue for the rest of your life is about to be blamed on your on-prem environment.

I apparently owe @awscloud $2.32 for November … who thinks I will be willing to spend the time to figure out what in the world I owe them for, and how to shut it down?

@CollinsworthPFF @awscloud @PFF Too bad we can’t hear a word you’re saying! The piped in fake background noise is a lot louder than the announcers. Can’t you fix it? Been doing that all year long. 😳 can’t you go in a booth so we can actually hear what you’re saying? Fix it please.

@SNFonNBC @awscloud For gods sake turn down the volume on that stupid fake crowd noise. You cant hear the effin announcers

@AWSSupport Thanks @AWSSupport, the article says "both of which require access to the most recent data immediately after a write", so I understand the problem. But how's that really a problem? What was the average "latency" on the S3 eventual consistency? How realtime data lakes need to be?

@awscloud If an org is relying on log files for security, they have problems

I feel really stupid as I don't understand what all the excitement/fuzz about the @awscloud s3 consistency announcement is. What was the problem before and why is it so great/important now? Can someone explain?

@QuinnyPig @awscloud Honest question: I feel really stupid as I don't understand what all the excitement/fuzz about the S3 consistency announcement is. What was the problem before and why is it so great/important now?

Interesting. I had a tech support chat with @AWSSupport and my issue was related to a small documentation bug in the CodeBuild docs. They found the issue quickly though
