It seems to be pulling a LOT with it. Even services like Microsoft Office 356

Apt typo. If it's 356, they have 9 days where they can be down a year.

The running joke at my office was that we'd call it Microsoft 364 or 363 every time we had an outage.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

G Suite Status is all green with no warnings. https://www.google.com/appsstatus

There are many warnings now.

Seeing that now. I like how the outage times are back-timed (11:57am est) to well before they posted anything about it.

Not only east coast, it looks global.

No, it does not. No problems at all here (Germany).

Hard to say. US populations are eastern centralized; west coast is only now getting to work, checking their mail, and searching bing for why google is down. You'd need a population + timezone forecast of that map to really measure regional outages.

Spain went down for 5 min while i was in a google doc + analytics. I run downforeveryoneorjustme.com and we went up to 1000 people a minute checking too. It only lasted a few min though.

It took me forEVER to memorize that URL lol, but I love your site.

On this note, a public postmortem from the 16 Oct 2018 YouTube outage does not seem to exist. If enterprise customers are impacted, there will likely be a public postmortem for this incident, but it is still publicly unknown what caused YouTube to go down.

Meanwhile their status page[0] is all green. The less they publish on their status page the more nines they preserve. [0] https://status.cloud.google.com/ Edit: status page not entirely green now, took them 25 minutes to acknowledge.

G Suite Status is all green with no warnings. https://www.google.com/appsstatus

FYI - these charts are more than likely updated by hand, by a person, with a bunch of deliberation and very high level approval (your actual SLA is probably based off of this person's call). At least that's how it was at another FAANG.

Looks like issues are primarily on the east coast: https://downdetector.com/status/google/map/ No issues with any google services thus far for me in Denver.

Denver here, I got a few 500 errors earlier this morning on search.

I think that graph is biased towards the fact that the east coast is awake while the west coast is not. Also almost 50% of the US population lives in a state that touches the Atlantic.

It was down for me here in California.
