@marekq @QuinnyPig @awscloud My point (though terse) was without these issues the CSPs wouldn’t be motivated to improve their architecture and design. They had a single point of failure that disrupted a huge portion of the internet. Now we all know it and the ball is on their court

@AWSSupport What? why them and not you? your cloud is down, not the training team.. Im not enrolled in one of your programs

@BuffaloBills @awscloud Only tells half of the story. They are getting dominated by the run. As a result, the passing stats are down.

@richarddlarson @QuinnyPig @awscloud Line coverage (at least) can actually mislead you here unless you use a very specific coding style. Consider: if err != nil && !IsNotFound(err) { // handle error and return } You can miss one or two of three cases and still achieve 100% line coverage here.

@QuinnyPig @awscloud Us-east-1 has been a SPOF that people just don't want to admit is there sense the beginning. Scores of things just stop when it has issues.

@QuinnyPig @awscloud In doing so most stuff recovered before we could even tell why it had broken. So here’s a partial description containing what little we do know for sure and a promise we’re going to theorize real hard about what we didn’t actually capture’

@ashishlogmaster @QuinnyPig @awscloud It’s not a single region service. I had no problems with SSO at all during the incident. It worked like a charm in the EU regions.

What happens if a human uses @Amazon / @awscloud EC2 to attempt to log on to a domain you own as admin, using your name - not my login btw - and you report it, with IP address, date, time etc? I can answer that: nothing. They have refused to give me any info without a court order

@ryan_sb @QuinnyPig @awscloud Although the current SHD can scale in terms of traffic, it doesn't scale in terms of content and mechanism - but things are about to change. Another issue which leads to what's externally perceived as "posting delays" is AWS only communicates when certain about things.

@simonggillett @QuinnyPig @awscloud I don’t think that they don’t know how to technical write, but rather that they’re not comfortable naming systems or architectural patterns, so it gets edited down to something that sounds less competent.

@QuinnyPig @awscloud Does it matter what the fine grained failure models are? Whats important is that your design can mitigate failures such that you don't go down with them..

(@kenhorn) reported
@fintanr @awscloud My takeaway is that apps/clusters should support a stable mode, where you avoid autoscaling if infra has issues - azure had similar impact. Minimising control plane dependence has some value, at times.

@Techpatch2 @QuinnyPig @awscloud 9 - aws-meta is where api /aws/v2/ec2/create lives, so no new ec2 instances until the problem was fixed 10 - api gateway uses /aws/v2/ec2/create under the hood, to recreate itself, if you were unlucky your api gateway was also impacted until meta-aws was restored.

@ItaiYaffe @awscloud lol... at least it wasn't a person this time that accidentally shut it down a name server. It was a computer that accidentally started everything up.

@QuinnyPig @awscloud No mention of Cloudfront. I was seeing Cloudfront configuration errors.

@g_bonfiglio @QuinnyPig @awscloud Because for example in the 2017 S3, 2021 Kinesis, and this latest availability event outage reports, there is a section mentioning dependency on internal AWS networks/services. If that's all about to change that is great news, but hard to see as a customer to know 2/2

@QuinnyPig @awscloud Isn't "service event" actually an euphemism for "outage"?

@QuinnyPig @awscloud Its really hard in large scale infra. Facebook’s badge system breaking is a good example during the routing outage. Auth, routing, and naming are often global things so when touching them, it requires lots of thought. Then since they are so foundational you can break everything

Great in the middle of doing a cloud build for my final exam and @awscloud went down again.

@QuinnyPig @awscloud Will be interesting how they will “improve” AWS SSO. We were SOL as we could not login at all! It’s a single region service and does not support “dual” instances (2 diff regions) by AWS org.

@Techpatch2 @QuinnyPig @awscloud 11 - same thing for everything else that was impacted. some stuff was failing because it runs on aws-meta, some stuff they turned off to help fix things 12 - it was a bug we never knew existed, will fix in 2 weeks 13 - sorry bros, will do better next time

@AWSSupport Hi, I made an account November 2020 for learning purposes , but now I am unable to sign in as I have lost my MFA information and unable to change password as I have no longer access to that e-mail , I have sent you all the details in DM, please terminate my account...

@Techpatch2 @QuinnyPig @awscloud 3 - there was a bug in step2 that caused aws-meta to burst into flames 4 - they moved very important stuff from aws-meta to aws-meta2 5 - fires and smoke everywhere, they couldn't see the source of the problem

(@AaronBoothUK) reported
@poiThePoi @QuinnyPig @awscloud Yeah not biased advice at all. Most people's risk profiles do not require multi region. The risk of having aws issues compared to the likelihood of breakages and issues due to your own poor implementation or losing skills in the workforce.

@QuinnyPig @awscloud Move the cloud they say, it's resilient. It doesn't go down. Then it goes down. And they don't know how to fix it.
