    OpenAI just unveiled Jalapeño - their first custom inference chip with Broadcom. "Substantially better performance per watt." Interesting. But a chip doesn't fix a misconfigured serving stack. Custom silicon with default batching, naive routing, and untuned KV-cache management is still burning money. SwarmOptimizer doesn't care what chip you run. It tunes the deployment layer - batching, caching, routing, concurrency - where most of the waste actually lives. The silicon is one layer. The optimization is another. Now on @awscloud

    @stoprocent @AWSSupport when you owe aws 10k that's your problem when its 1 trillion it's their problem

    @t1097s @larunachalam @awscloud Tyler, are you an AWS actual customer, or just someone who thinks real people should “chill out” when a vendor causes actual business trouble and then jokes about it?

    @asimrazax @AWSSupport I have the same problem. Did you fix it?

    Another OG goes down. I remember people calling Storj the next Amazon S3 back in 2018

  • devXritesh
    Ritesh Roushan (@devXritesh) reported

    A good architecture starts by separating document storage, signing, identity verification, and notifications into independent services. 1. API Gateway All requests (upload, sign, download, share) pass through the API Gateway. It handles authentication, rate limiting, request validation, and routing. 2. Document Service Contracts are uploaded directly to object storage (Amazon S3/GCS/Azure Blob). Metadata such as owner, participants, document status, and version history is stored in PostgreSQL. Large files never pass through application servers. 3. Identity Verification Service Before signing, users verify their identity using email OTP, SMS OTP, OAuth, or KYC providers depending on compliance requirements. A verified identity token is issued before allowing signatures. 4. Signing Service Each signature request creates an immutable signing event. Documents are locked while applying a signature to prevent conflicts when multiple users sign simultaneously. Optimistic locking or version numbers help resolve concurrent updates. 5. Audit Log Service Every action upload, view, download, sign, reject, revoke is published to Kafka. Events are stored in an append-only audit database with timestamps, signer identity, IP address, and device information, creating a tamper-resistant audit trail. 6. Notification Service Kafka events trigger email, SMS, and push notifications asynchronously so users are notified instantly without slowing down API responses. 7. Security • Encrypt files at rest (AES-256) • TLS for data in transit • Short-lived signed URLs for downloads • RBAC for document access • Hash every signed document (SHA-256) to detect tampering • Store digital certificates securely using a KMS/HSM 8. Scalability Deploy services independently behind load balancers. Use Redis for caching document metadata and sessions. Object storage handles millions of documents, while Kafka decouples services and absorbs traffic spikes. Read replicas improve download performance, and multi-region replication ensures disaster recovery. This architecture provides secure storage, concurrent signing, legal compliance, high availability, and scales to millions of contracts worldwide.

    @AWSSupport Moving my domains and hosting to Cloudflare. There should have been a service bulletin on the billing page explaining the issue

    @DRiceHockey @WNBA @awscloud Same applies to all their stats. Their PRA is gonna go down too. That's the nature of injuries. Makes it harder for the individual, but does not increase the difficulty of the actual shot itself.

    @litteralyme0 this happens to me everytime Amazon AWS has an outage

    @awscloud The LEAST you can do is to give some compensation. This mistake caused operational issues for several companies across the globe.

  • JoeFromSJersey

    @AWSSupport Good morning folks, I appreciate the help getting things working for me yesterday as I was able to use Kiro! I'm not unable to upgrade from free tier though and get an error that says unable to upgrade. I've a case for that too and was hoping you could also get eyes on that.

  • _adam_here_

    @AWSSupport Even the AWS health page was down. Total AWS system downtime for 12-13 minutes. AWS appears back now.

  • JeffBVockrodt
    Jeff B. Vockrodt (@JeffBVockrodt) reported

    @AWSSupport You should send follow up emails alerting all your customers to this issue. I woke up to a $719 million billing estimate which although absurd conjures a potential nightmare of getting it worked out

    @ivanburazin Why are you still using windows server ? It’s less than 10 minutes to fire up a @awscloud ECS cluster running free Linux

  • GettingMyGlitch
    GettingMyGlitchOff (@GettingMyGlitch) reported

    @AWSSupport Again there is a mass wave of suspensions like in May, I'm assuming in error as I've been on this platform for over 10 years and this seems to be happening more frequently. Emails from mturk-noreply havent worked in a long time so any updates on this situation?

  • MisterPrashant

    This solution to this problem is AI traffic monetization. If you are an owner of a platform that provides some valuable data, you can put the data behind a paywall for the AI traffic by charging the bot fraction of a penny for using your content. x402 Payment Required protocol tells the bot that the content requires payment and the bot settles the transaction quickly on a stable coin at which point the content becomes accessible. This way,people running their search bots does not require subscription to 10 different services and can easily access data from anywhere at a very minimal cost and the owners of the sites also win as the traffic count to their paywalled site will generate income. This is not a concept. The framework to build this is already available in @awscloud today.

    @AWSSupport be honest, how much of this problem was due to ai and/or vibecoding

    @slap__tjips @awscloud Gosh ai haters are so ******* dumb they just assume and blame it on ai for a funny error that didn’t result in any wrong

  • sambarvadaii
    hansi flick enjoyer (@sambarvadaii) reported

    @santhoshv @AWSSupport @awscloud I had an s3 bucket with some data in worth 2-3 mb at max. At first I thought someone hacked into my account. I raised a billing inquiry, after which I realised that this was an ongoing issue.

    @awscloud fix your Alexa servers and fix your Bluetooth on app and devices! #alexadown #alexa #amazon

    @darkosubotica @awscloud @AWSSupport Thanks Darko. I'm keen to be involved. I'm aware there are challenges. A billing bug shouldn't cause a global outage or delete backups. I believe these are solvable. I don't want the possibility of financial ruin from a mistake or hack. Will DM.

    @kankerhoerrrrrr @marcelocantos @awscloud "skill issue" is a term only unironically used by losers and AI bots. I can take a guess at which one you are.

  • erinEncoded
    Erin (@erinEncoded) reported

    @awscloud This is tone deaf. It wasn’t funny. It was upsetting. It reduced my trust in your systems, testing, and ability to roll back critical errors. I didn’t laugh. Why are you?

    is @AWSSupport down?

    Hi @awscloud @AWS I am currently facing issues from regarding certain payments. And despite incessantly reaching out on the support team and the email, I have been charged and there has been no formal support extended. I know you guys can do better than this.

    @AWSSupport Still NO resolution after 7 days! Case ID: 17849863000462 Account hold cleared days ago, but CloudFront is STILL locked due to a backend flag sync issue. @AWSSupport keeps passing the buck. Assign a supervisor to clear this flag NOW! @awscloud #AWS #CloudFront #AWSCloud

    @awscloud And while you fix it, you can credit us for those amounts.
