We got timeouts to our bucket address from every location we tried starting at 10:37 Mountain time (GMT-7). Slack uploads started failing, imgur isn't working, and the landing page for the AWS console is showing a 500 error in the image flipper in the middle of the page. The Amazon status page has been all green, but there is a forum post about people having problems at https://forums.aws.amazon.com/thread.jspa?threadID=250319&ts...

In the last couple of minutes that forum post has gone from not existing to 175 views and 9 posts.

I'm seeing green checkmarks across the board, but they just added a notice to the top of the page:

> Increased Error Rates

> We are investigating increased error rates for Amazon S3 requests in the US-EAST-1 Region.

http://downdetector.com/status/aws-amazon-web-services looks like a reasonable alternative place to check/report downtime.

Gah. It was up 3 minutes ago. Anyone have any suspicion this is another ddos episode? I saw that SO was down last night too: https://twitter.com/StackStatus/status/836450836322516992

They don't show it on the status dashboard at https://status.aws.amazon.com/ (at least at the time I originally posted this comment). But if you go to your personal health dashboard ( https://phd.aws.amazon.com/phd/home#/dashboard/open-issues ) they report an S3 operational issue event there. Edit: Mine is reporting region us-east-1 Edit 2: And now the event disappeared from my personal health dashboard too. But we a…

Also seeing the intermittent event on the personal dashboard. Wonderful.

Apparently they need a special/separate status page for everyone's personal health dashboard too. SMH.

Which is coincidently down.

Maybe they are hosted on S3 facepalm or maybe they just got a surge in traffic
