Assuming crates.io is AWS-backed? Getting fun situation where direct dependencies of an application are downloading but then the sub-dependencies aren't.

#13Slack seems to have some issues because of that - I'm not sure if anyone is receiving messages, as it became completely silent for the last 15 minutes or so.

#14Is there a history of AWS downtimes available somewhere? This makes what, three times in as many months?
edit: The question isn't necessarily AWS specific, just any data on amount of downtime per cloud provider on a timeline would be nice.

crates.io is directly hosted on GitHub, but I'm sure some dependencies use S3 or other AWS services for things.

I'd say three times in as many weeks, give it or take

#18One of our EC2 instances in us-east-1c is unavailable and stuck in "stopping" state after a force stop. Interestingly enough, EC2 instances in us-east-1b don't seem to be affected. The console is throwing errors from time to time. As usual no information on AWS status page.
I had the same issue with unavailable, but on an instance in us-east-1b. Finally just got the force stop to go through a minute ago and it's now running and available again.
Your us-east-1b may be the parents us-east-1c.
The letters are randomised per AWS account so that instances are spread evenly and biases to certain letters don't lead to biases to certain zones.

I'm not sure if we should say "AWS is down" if only us-east-1 is down. That region is more unstable than Marjorie Taylor Greene on a one-legged stool.

Yep, S3 possibly the villain here
