Is Amazon Web Services down?

@juliey4 Biggest problem Amazon marketplace has is that none of the sellers enjoy working with them. It's a constant painful struggle with them. However - biggest thing Amazon has going for it is AWS being 60% of revenue. Marketplace failing isn't existential.

@alibaba_cloud @awscloud Stark differences in @alibaba_cloud nand @awscloud - while #Alibaba offers more but is pathetically slow in responding and systems are archaic in comparison to #Amazon which offers less but has crisp and clear procedures. Way to go @awscloud 👍👍

@aviwadh @AWSSupport @AWSSupport is absolutely amazing for these small configuration issues. My gripe is that the error is generic. I figured it out on my own I had a malformed ECR path.

@andrewbrown @AWSSupport @AWSSupport Not worthy for quick solutions. It's better to go for a guy who could solve that problem in less time. Because sometimes these error sucks.

@squarecog I think the intelligentsia fashion shifted to PyTorch now. Because of the Py prefix no doubt. Once Google renames its 2020 model PyFlow, the tables will turn again. AWS will then show pythons dataflowing down Amazon are the fastest, baddest, and the best.

@TheNickVanHoof @awscloud The throttling on the retry is a downstream pressure mitigation strategy that will limit the # of concurrent retries. That, coupled with the Delivery Delay, will give a downstream service a small recovery window. If you expect a larger outage, then add a CW alarm to the queue...

@ircolle @QuinnyPig @awscloud @Stephen_Kendrex @boofla docs! Always docs. The main problem is that it's entirely unclear how jobs are allocated and distributed and data is piped in. It's just "create a job template" and "kick off a job" without the very important bit in the middle about how scheduling works.

@MichaelJBrodeur @FossiFoundation @Microsoft @awscloud @risc_v @UW Connections is definitely of interest if we go down that route but we're probably around 9 months away from a decision. Also, what we meant with the argument against Seattle is that there's a whole lot of USA, Canada and Mexico where Latch-Up hasn't been yet.

@Jiawei_Zhuang_ @zhangxin_dawn @EarthArXiv @awscloud @jimmielin @seanwssmith @casc @Internet2 @educause P.S.: You can't leave out staff support and similar operational support when comparing costs. If anything, experience from @NIH-funded cloud projects shows that those costs go up when converting to cloud delivery models, not down, and those consulting engineers are expensive!

This I think beats the purpose of managed service if we cant get adequate service when needed. Again THANKS #AWSSupport for fixing the issue, even though it took days. I absolutely love #AWSCloud and heavily invested on it. #AWS is the #future!! #AWSSupport #AWSCloud #AWS

I was on basic plan as well, and it took me 3 days to resolve the #ES hardware #node failure issue, due to unable to submit #support #ticket, I had to change my support plan in order to get help on managed service. #AWSSupport #AWSCloud #AWS

@awssupport first of all thanks for fixing the #ElasticSearch Node issue, While the managed service hardware was at fault this brings up a really valid concern for those accounts with basic support #plan #AWSSupport #AWSCloud #AWS #managedservice

So, @awscloud $ amplify push -> Error: bucket already exists. I go to S3 and delete bucket. Now, "bucket does not exists" 🤨🙁 And no sufficient solution on @StackOverflow cc @dabit3 #Serverless #aws #amplify #React !!!!!!

@nixcraft @awscloud @Google @linode I used to warn some businesses about the insecure nature of the cloud (when asked) and they still moved, although most did a full backup to local server!

@nixcraft @awscloud @Google @linode corporates are moving to @Azure to run their exchange, its why MS stock price jumped recently disadvantage of cloud is once you commit to one, it's hard to move, so you can get trapped in ever increasing bills happened to SalesForce i'm 50/50, private cloud on rented server

@LatchUpConf @MichaelJBrodeur @FossiFoundation @Microsoft @awscloud @risc_v @UW And come down we did

@cloudguy2727 @awscloud This solves the problem of how you can send sensitive data to internet randos at serious scale. It of course predates Twitter.

@jaeik_song @awscloud This solves the problem of crap-ass networking vendors not having anything to do in a Cloud world.

@cloudguy2727 @awscloud This solves the problem of "we need a cannon for email." Unfortunately, the aspect of "cannon" that they took from the description was "the best technology used in the Civil War."

When using @awscloud, @GCPcloud or similar platforms, you can't limit the budget. What you can do is to set up budget alerts. The only way to stop money from running out on these platforms is to shut down the service that leaks the budget. Make sure you know how to do that.

@maxgio92 @awscloud This solves the problem of not having a worse GKE offering that also charges for the control plane.

@signaleleven @awscloud This solved the problem of "Corey's never explicitly requested anything before, so let's build this thing he asked for explicitly to mess with him."

@iamvini89 @awscloud This solves the problem of CloudFront feeling bad that it was the only @awscloud service that offered two-day shipping.

@daveadams @awscloud This solves the problem of wanting to spin up virtual machines for just as long as you need them. Now please plan your usage for the next three years unless you want to pay retail rates.

@slpsys @awscloud This solves the problem of "you don't have enough paperwork to fill out, so here's a questionnaire that we're calling a tool."

@SimiStern @awscloud This solves the primary problem of "Microsoft Clippy had too much personality."

@0xfraq @awscloud This solves the problem of "@iancolle needs something to talk about with me when we meet for drinks."

@mattsipes_ @awscloud This solves the problem of "there aren't enough things between your code and the customer that can intermittently block requests."

@jt7d @awscloud This solves the AWS problem of "they were tired of spending years of their lives on the phone with various auditors."

@leodavidgomez @awscloud This solves the problem of "customers aren't shoveling their data into S3 fast enough to suit AWS."

@MichaelJBrodeur @FossiFoundation @Microsoft @awscloud @risc_v @UW Seattle ticks all the boxes so that's definitely an option. The only thing that speaks against it is that we chose P|tl& last year with the intention of bringing down all the Seattleites

I just spent three hours debugging @aws_eb because deploys were not working, turns out Chrome was caching. Thank you @AWSSupport CloudEngineer #aws I will go to sleep and dream of EB deploys

@AWSSupport I discussed it with them and they said it was an amazon issue. Now I'm confused on what to do but I'll post in the forum for help

@BridgmanBrandon @aycdjake @blueracksio @aycdio @awscloud Correct! All you have to pay is the AWS server costs (the same price that @blueracksio pays)

@phredmoyer @awscloud This was released in a terrible accident back in 2024.

@chad_b_morrow @awscloud This solves a company's marketing problem: "We want to claim we have millions of users but don't want to be able to substantiate that in any way, shape, or form."

@securitylater @awscloud This solves the primary problem of "I pay an intern to read through the security reports," which is of course "that intern doesn't have a horrifying drinking problem."

@danielmunro @awscloud This solves the problem of customers having far too much money to throw at hype-driven technologies, but not enough expertise in those technologies to throw enough of that money.

@darrellhyde @awscloud This solves the problem of people buying crap-ass hardware and then failing to maintain them in any way. It also juices Enterprise Support deals.

@AWSSupport Hi Amazon, I've been trying for two months to reset my password for an old account. I've gone through the same cycle over and over again (describe my issue to support, get a verification phone call, encounter same issue & report the issue...

By request, something worse: A few years ago I would routinely find errors in the @awscloud Detailed Billing Reports (massive CSVs) that were very clearly human error. Transposed digits, etc. The production process must have been horrifying.

@Coleman2032 @FirstTake @stephenasmith Half the issue are IT organizations still running servers on Windows XP or Vista. Nobody wants to invest into the proper infrastructure yet. Even though solutions like @awscloud exist.

@awscloud Update (thanks to the help from AWS' support): Your task may point to an instance instead of a target (e.g. after playing with it). If this instance is gone, you will get that error (the message could use an improvement tho).

@awscloud Pls bring back #FortniteSEAServer for SouthEast Asian players .. We are getting much higher ping in Middle East Server ( 90-250ms) and Asia-Tokyo(140-190ms). Please fix our Singapore server and bring back .... Please....

@themsaid @awscloud If you try to contact the API owner in case of an error: "Unfortunately, we do not provide API support. Sorry for any disappointment."

@AWSSupport Thank you, I reported the problem.

@awscloud Hi, one of your servers may be infected with cryptomining malware, which causes problems for your customers. IP address: 3.13.51[.]158/32

@awscloud Hello dear team could you please help me with this question, we have today a web page production running with Drupal on container but the mysql database is running on vm server standalone, so we would like to upload this on AWS, so what is the better aws solution

@QuinnyPig @captainklein @awscloud @mza @glenngore @F1 the real problems will start when they release F5

@dcallahan2 @dhinchcliffe @DrJDrooghaag @Craw @NickBrackney @the_spinmd @hyounpark @mthiele10 @glennodonnell @tcrawford @furrier @BillMew @Google @Microsoft @AWS @quartz @dez_blanchfield @evankirstel @rwang0 @NeilCattermull @imoyse @nigewillson @digitalcloudgal @Kevin_Jackson @Tech_Analyst_UK @DT @IanLJones98 @DigitalColmer @NevilleGaunt @schmarzo @channelsmart @QuinnyPig @DaveBartoletti @awscloud @Azure @GCPcloud @alibaba_cloud @sapcp @OracleCloud @amazon That’s a problem with metaphoric terms, they are so “Loosey-Goosey”!

@DiggsNotLeaving @ryan_greer1 @PFF_Sam @PFF @awscloud Well that’s his problem if he was so damn hurt sit down

@mtparet @awscloud Between rushing a new release (with the risk of introducing problems for customers) and delaying it to make sure we are doing the right things... we will opt for the latter.

"It's always great to have your team spend more time thinking about the problem and not the code" - Mike Vogelsong, Senior Machine Learning Scientist, Amazon @ AWS Innovate Conference 2020 AI/ML Edition #amazon #aws #m #machinelearning #ai

@themsaid @AWSSupport 😂 Back when I was at Amazon, I remember people copying and putting these phrases just to resolve comments they get assigned automatically through @Sprinklr .. They talk nothing but volume, if your issue is the same as less than 10% ain’t nobody will have time for this ...

When designing an API, don't throw this kind of errors: "state is not required for Norway, and should not be set". Just ignore the value if you don't need it. @awscloud APIs can be very frustrating sometimes 😡

@QuinnyPig @awscloud A payment related issue has been going on for months.A payment was made which did not reflect in your system. A 2nd payment was made. Bank gave trans# of both payments. Ur team is still struggling to adjust the money against my payable. Have shortened the ordeal to fit in a tweet

@awscloud You need to seriously look at the the way your Accounts Receivables handle queries / issues.

@printsseemly @awscloud @signalapp maybe it’s the isp issue (singtel), we have a few guys on singtel having the same issue at the same time in different location in singapore.

@moXplOd @AWSSupport Seems some problem with @airtelindia network
