(Disclaimer: I work for AWS.) The dashboard is not changing color due to the S3 issue. We're updating the banner in place of that. Edit: Update at 11:35 AM PST: We have now repaired the ability to update the service health dashboard. The service updates are below. We continue to experience high error rates with S3 in US-EAST-1, which is impacting various AWS services. We are working hard at repairing S3, believe we u…
Maybe you could encourage your colleagues to host the status page outside of AWS?
We'll have to wait for the postmortem, but I bet it was an unintentional dependency on S3 that no one realized had come into place until S3 went down -- especially considering how fast they were able to remove the dependency and fix it.

#583It looks like the S3 outage is spreading to other systems or the root cause of the S3 problem is affecting different services. There are at least 20 services listed now. [1]

#589what's truly incredible is that S3 has been offline for h̶a̶l̶f̶ ̶a̶n̶ ̶h̶o̶u̶r̶ two hours now and Amazon still has the audacity to put five shiny green checkmarks next to S3 on their service page. they just now put up a box at the top saying "We are investigating increased error rates for Amazon S3 requests in the US-EAST-1 Region." increased error rates? really? Amazon, everything is on fire. you are not fooling an…

For some reason, reading about "believe we understand root cause" made me think of: "A distributed system is one in which the failure of a computer you didn't even know existed can render your own computer unusable."

#590what's the SLA for s3?
Here it is, in typical SLA language... only AWS knows what it means https://aws.amazon.com/s3/sla/
There's logic behind the complicated rules. The idea is that you can't cause the calculated availability to go down by generating lots of requests when the service is down.
