Do they do this to get around and 99.9% uptime agreements?
That's the trust issue with current agreements we are solving. If an API is down the bound agreement is enforced instantly with our platform, no lies, no call, no pain. We are actually onboarding companies to try it out! https://stacktical.com
I’ve seen many systems go down over the last few days worldwide. Aside from the possibility of a mega-DDoS attack (which Facebook denies), all of these organizations have fairly diverse tech stacks to my knowledge. Google’s issue (supposedly) had to do with their Blobstore API, we don’t know what happened with Facebook, and many other, smaller services have had issues as well, including three intranet services at my…
Both companies are massive and have tons of developers. It becomes almost impossible to look at the system as a whole with the amount of changes coming through.

I run a messenger bot platform - the webhooks stopped being delivered _hours_ ago... nothing on their status page until it had been down for hours. Their current issue... "We are currently experiencing issues that may cause some API requests to take longer or fail unexpectedly. We are inv…
(Oh, turns out the Great Blackout Baby Boom was a myth:
The only things that I can think of that would cause this scale of being down is either a T1 center outage or (conspiracy hat on) a major hack and everyone is rush patching Would be interesting to read the post mortem if there is any regardless
Did we ever get a post mortem for the global Youtube outage from late last year?
