Re: AWS having major issues
#12CAn confirm we are also experiencing massive issues, took AWS about an hour to update status page. Attempted to file support ticket and that timed out, when the request finished it had created 10 duplicated tickets and still waiting on the phone call from AWS RE ticket.

Re: AWS having major issues
#14Some of my Portland neighbors are concerned with rising rents as well as Oregon's No-Fault evictions.
San Francisco too. While it has rent control there are such workarounds as remodeling an apartment.
They figure they can give all the hipsters the boot by cutting optical fiber. Good thing it's clearly marked with all those "Call Before You Dig" signs!
HOWTO Win a Cold War When It Suddenly Grows Hot
tl;dr: backhoes are cheap to rent and easy to operate.
AWS Boston failed the same time Portland and San Francisco did, but I don't know why yet. My concern when I posted the above was the Livermore cut, I figured Vladimir Putin had grown weary of America's craft beer export restrictions.
"The FBI is investigating" according to all the newspapers, but when I reported the Portland cut to their national crime tips hotline, the FBI agent I spoke too didn't even know there was such a thing as optical fiber.
There was a cut in San Jose in June 2010.
8-1-1 exists specifically to prevent fiber cuts but there is no way to report that a cut had actually happened. Santa Clara Vallet 9-1-1 hung up on me when I requested they connect me to a Network Operations Center.
6-1-1 is what I wanted. I called the FBI for the Portland cut because 6-1-1 was down as well.
Emergency Responders all use radio for many good reasons but that Portland cut disabled 9-1-1.
What actually made the news around here?
A local TV station's cable channel was down for a few hours.
Mom's Earthlink was down. "That's because of the cable cut, Mom. There is nothing that Earthlink Tech Spport can do."
"That's fine, so long as I can get my eMail!"
Mom pays for her dialup, therefore she expects it to work.

Their tech support is excellent, it is run far far better than Amazon could ever hope to achieve.
If any prgmr.com server ever goes down, Luke's girl puts his testicles in a bench clamp until that server comes back up.

We've been having issues with SES N.Virginia, but have managed to get mail through. It's intermittent, but we are getting our batches out. It's not pretty.
