Trello is down too. I wonder if there's a service they're both using that's the root of it.

Running my side project StatusGator, I have a good view of 200 different service status pages and there are about 20 services now showing down or warning notices. A quick spot check seems most of those are related to GitHub, however. Often times when AWS or Heroku or similar hosting service posts downtime you can see 30% of the services I monitor go down at all once.

mind mentioning some of the bigger names?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Mailchimp was as well. Both Trello and Mailchimp reverse proxy through Akamai. Github is on their own gear on their own netblock, but might be on the same IXP fabric with an Akamai POP.

I am more familiar with this map: http://map.norsecorp.com/

There is no DDoS going on right now.

As a weekend project, I created a service to monitor the status of many services (Github included) in one single page http://isserviceup.com/ . You can register with your Github account and star the services you use to receive notifications through Slack when their status change. It's all free and open source, let me know your thoughts! p.s. I just posted a Show HN here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13117856

by the way, here the link to the github repository https://github.com/marcopaz/is-service-up

I wish they used statuspage.io or at least offered email notifications for the status.

If you use Slack, you can subscribe to the Github Status RSS feed from the DM page for slackbot, or even your own username by using:

/feed subscribe https://status.github.com/messages.rss

I got a "Major service outage" message about 30 minutes ago.

Github's status page shows past month uptime, but I would be interested in seeing past year. It seems to me that Github has had a couple of major outages recently. Then again, they stand out more than normal operation.

This and parent commenter's link paint _completely_ different pictures - do either of you know why?

The Akamai link shows Europe red hot, with the UK at "~17% attack", whatever that means. Norse Corp link shows nothing of the sort, UK so negligible as to not even make the list.

You're missing slack status (they're down right now).

Speaking of Akamai... Apple Music, the App Store, and Facetime are being flaky right now too. Apple Music has completely stopped working for me.

Maybe another DDOS dry run? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Not doing too bad of a job if this isn't their A game.

Maybe? http://downdetector.com/ if you look at the charts quite a few spiked around the same time.

That means 17% of traffic/attacks all around the globe right now is in the UK. There is nothing useful to understand with that information ^^

[Either traffic or attacks depending on which graphs you look at]

The graph I gave show current attacks in live. If there was a DDoS going you'd see a shittons of lines going toward a single location.
