I think this adds some momentum to the pendulum swinging back the other way. Maybe cloud teams can patch your services better than your in-house team can (See 2 critical issues in Azure the last 3 months, _caused_ by MS itself).

Maybe the cloud has a higher uptime than your on-premise infrastructure (see the AWS, Azure outages). Make sure to compare the actual outage time v.s. the stats doctored by various political pressures and weaselly worded SLAs (how do you mean you had an outage? Only 49% of your requests were failing!).

I've been getting the "We're sorry!" error for at least 15 minutes. No idea about regions or anything, I was just about to look up their docs about moving accounts between orgs etc. Anyone affected? Edit: Seems to be flapping between the 'sorry' error and a blank page. Thoughts and prayers with the SREs, if they call 'em that over there.

Same here. And as always, AWS status page [0] is completely green and useless. [0] https://status.aws.amazon.com/

Because everything works fine? So a landing page does not work you need to put defcon 3?

It seems like AWS and Google have had more outages than normal recently. I guess this is to do with COVID disruptions? (remote working and such).

I'm still able to log in to the console. Seems to just be the AWS landing page that is down.

Me too. Though it does seem to be any page for that specific domain. They all return an HTTP 500 (Internal Server Error).

Google "site: aws.amazon.com" and try any of the links.
