#202It's completely nuts that Firebase has this: https://status.firebase.google.com/incidents/ZcF1YDUvpdixZ2e... "Firebase Data Connect unavailable due to a known Google Cloud global outage" While the Google Cloud status page https://status.cloud.google.com/ says "No major incidents" and everything is green. So Google Cloud know there is an outage but just deem it not major enough to show it. Edit to add: within 10 minut…
lies, from big tech?
say it's not so!

#203The status page is green, but there are outages reported: https://downdetector.com/status/google-cloud/
It's updated now, shows the impact to console, dataproc, GCS, IAM and Identity Platform: https://status.cloud.google.com/incidents/ow5i3PPK96RduMcb1S...

Something must be preventing them updating the status page at this point. Of course they could still deem it not enough, but just from my limited tests, docker, buf, etc (it may not be GCP that is down, but it is quite the coincidence). are outright down. I'd wager that this is much more widespread.
I'm actually on a bridge call with Google Cloud, we're a large customer -- I just learned today that their status page is not automated, instead someone actually manually updates it!

#205Earlier quoted context omitted.
Why can't companies be honest with being down. It helps us all out so we don't spend an hour internalizing. We are truly in gods hands. $ prod Fetching cluster endpoint and auth data. ERROR: (gcloud.container.clusters.get-credentials) ResponseError: code=503, message=Visibility check was unavailable. Please retry the request and contact support if the problem persists
Because a lot of the time, not everyone is impacted, as the systems are designed to contain the "blast radius" of failures using techniques such as cellular architecture and [shuffle sharding]( https://aws.amazon.com/builders-library/workload-isolation-u... ). So sometimes a service is completely down for some customers and fully unaffected for other customers.
They still could show that so.e.issues exist. Their monitoring must know.
The issue is that they don't want to. (For claiming good uptime, which may even be true for average user, if most outages affect only small groups)

Why even have a status page? Someone reported that their org of >100,000 users can't use Google Meet. If corps aren't going to update their status page, might as well just not have one. https://www.google.com/appsstatus/dashboard/ https://status.cloud.google.com/index.html Edit: The GCP status page got updated <1 minute after I posted this, showing affected services are Cloud Data Fusion, Cloud Memorystore, Cloud She…

This is my position.

Maybe the outage is preventing them from updating that specific page? Hmm EDIT: Looks like it has been updated now (6:49 PM UTC)
Anytime there is an outage that affects App Engine, Google can't seem to get their status page updated for an extended period of time.
