Yesterday Amazon, today Microsoft. Are Google's cloud services going down tomorrow?

Maybe they are and no one realized yet.. :P

That said, I don't hear about GCP outages all that often. I do think AWS might be leading in outages, but that's a gut feeling, I didn't look up numbers.

I noticed that Starbucks mobile ordering was down and thought “welp, I guess I’ll order a bagel and coffee on Grubhub”, then GrubHub was down. My next stop was HN to find the common denominator, and y’all did not disappoint.

Starbucks mobile was down during the AWS outage too...

Go multi-cloud they said...

They are multi-cloud --- vulnerable to all outages!

It is much more than azure. One of my kids needs a key for their laptop and can't reach that either. Great excuse though, 'Azure ate my homework'. What a ridiculous world we are building. Fuck MS and their account requirements for windows.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

yea its not just the portal. microsoft.com is down too

Downdetector says aws and gcp are down too. Might be in for a fun day.

From what I can tell, Downdetector just tracks traffic to their pages without actually checking if the site is down.

The other day during the AWS outage they "reported" OVH down too.

Good thing HN is hosted on a couple servers in a basement. Much more reliable than cloud, it seems!
