How sure are we that this outage is limited to IBM cloud? Pindom[1] had a spike of website outages from 11k => 27k. [1] https://livemap.pingdom.com/
IBM Cloud was down, as well as their status page

#22I generally do everything on AWS or GCP, with a little Azure sometimes for personal projects. In what world does IBM beat one of those three in anything? Generally curious - how they are able to stay competitive?

It's most likely customers of IBM cloud whose systems rely on something hosted there and are thus down as well.

#26All of Broadcastify's audio servers (hosted with Softlayer in their Dallas datacenter) are completely unreachable and down. I'm going to wait a bit to see if we get a status update, otherwise we'll be spinning up instances on AWS to failover (which will be enormously costly for bandwidth) No status, no nothing, we're in the dark.

#28My side project StatusGator monitors status pages (including IBM's ill-fated page) and I'm seeing more than 10% of the nearly 800 services we monitor having an outage right now. So it appears to affect anyone who depends on IBM Cloud.
Do you have similar %'s of monitored cloud services that have gone off the air during other providers' outages?

Hey. Do you want to shoot me an email, IRC chat, or anything? I can keep you up to date with what I'm hearing from my manager.
