WTF was that?!? Smells like some sort of reroute attack to me.

Can we please fix the title of this post and/or its link?

It currently takes you to Heroku's homepage, which contains no information relevant to the post's title.

The status pages shows all clear, https://status.heroku.com

Not anymore.

Thanks, I wonder if that gives any insight to what the core issue is

https://status.heroku.com/ is showing that there's a platform issue. More details now available: >> Our Engineering team has detected routing issues to US apps. We are working to resolve the issue as soon as possible. Incident link here: https://status.heroku.com/incidents/1973

The URL for the main article should be this one - https://status.heroku.com - not just heroku.com.

Seems to be all good now. Any idea how long the outage was?

My application uptime monitor clocked it at 12 minutes.

Almost exactly 12 minutes for me as well.

Just resolved it seems. Hit us in the middle of a huge enterprise demo. We’re moving off Heroku as fast as we can, but we need to make the jump to containerization first and it’s hard to prioritize infra projects these crazy days.

We had approximately 13 minutes of downtime across all apps. Even Heroku's own docs were down

I guess that answers the question, at least…

Seems up at the moment. I'm sure there will be some outages as data centers are running with reduced staff and some companies don't know how to do teleworking well.

Would be interested in hearing what heroku users are using for automated failover when heroku goes down.

Obviously can't live in the application code (b/c that's unreachable at that point), but is there an easy way to configure Cloudflare or something to switch to a static site hosted somewhere else?
