Wow, S3 is a much bigger single point of failure than I have imagined. Travis CI, Trello, Docker Hub, ... I can't even install packages because the binary cache of NixOS is down. Love living in the cloud.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
@mikecb on Twitter explained it well. "The red icon is stored in S3 US East."
FYI, in seriousness you can see the fabled red status icon here: https://status.aws.amazon.com/images/status3.gif It does exist, apparently.
Great, all my billing services on Heroku are turned off. Why do they need S3 access for me to access my web dynos? I'd rather my app load but appear broken so I can show my own status rather than just shutting down every single app...
A piece of hard-earned advice: us-east-1 is the worst place to set up AWS services. You're signing up for the oldest hardware and the most frequent outages. For legacy customers, it's hard to move regions, but in general, if you have the chance to choose a region other than us-east-1, do that. I had the chance to transition to us-west-2 about 18 months ago and in that time, there have been at least three us-east-1 ou…
I'm getting the same outage in us-west-2 right now.
Down for us as well. We have cloudfront in front of some of our s3 buckets and it is responding with CloudFront is currently experiencing problems with requesting objects from Amazon S3. Can I also say I am constantly disappointed by AWS's status page: https://status.aws.amazon.com/ it seems whenever there is an issue this takes a while to update. Sometimes all you see is a green checkmark with a tiny icon saying a n…
I did that out of paranoia but it turns out this could happen to us. Does that sound like a sensible approach?
Fortunately all my company's stuff is in eu-west-1 which still seems to be fine.
This seems like an appropriate time as any... Anyone want to list some competitors to S3? Bonus if it also provides a way to host a static website.

It really is amazing how many web services are dependent on S3. For instance, the Heroku dashboard is currently down for me. Along with all of my services that are on Heroku.
