One of my heroku apps is down, and I cant' log into the heroku dashboard to check it out. I'm guessing this is related.
Me too. This couldn't have come at a worse time. Just launched a new site.

#213Not sure if its related or not (I'll just assume it is), but dockerhub is down as well. Haven't been able to push or pull for the last 15 minutes, some other folks complaining of the same thing.
confirmed: dockerhub is down too
Re: Ask HN: Is S3 down?
#214what's truly incredible is that S3 has been offline for h̶a̶l̶f̶ ̶a̶n̶ ̶h̶o̶u̶r̶ two hours now and Amazon still has the audacity to put five shiny green checkmarks next to S3 on their service page. they just now put up a box at the top saying "We are investigating increased error rates for Amazon S3 requests in the US-EAST-1 Region." increased error rates? really? Amazon, everything is on fire. you are not fooling an…
The AWS Status page will lie to you: https://medium.com/@ev.dev.dev/the-aws-status-page-will-lie-...
I like how this post says "if you look at the AWS Status Page, this what you see". but you can't see the image. because S3 is down.

#215Where is that "Show HN" that will let me check if a site is affected by an S3 outtage?
Re: Ask HN: Is S3 down?
#216My ELBS and EB related instances are also down. I can't even get to Elastic Beanstalk or Load Balancers in the web console. Anyone else having this issue?

#217Mass outage like this is exactly one of the things we are looking to avoid by building a decentralized storage grid with Sia.
Sia are immune to situations like this because data is stored redundantly across dozens of servers around the world that are all running on different, unique configurations. Furthermore, there's no single central point of control on the Sia network.
Sia is still under heavy development, but it's future featureset and specifications should be able to fully replace the S3 service (including CDN capabilities).

#218We're on AWS GovCloud and our S3 is all good. GovCloud is its own region.
Shame we pay a bazillion dollars for it. Anyway, curious to know how you've thought about mitigating something like this? I worry if it happens to us govcloud users we obviously have much fewer options for redundancy.

#219It's not just us-east-1! They're being extremely dishonest with the green checkmarks. We can't even load the s3 console for other regions. I would post a screenshot, but Imgur is hosed by this too.
IIRC the Console is mostly hosted out of US-EAST-1. Direct API calls to other S3 regions are likely to work, but it's not surprising the Console's having trouble.

It is, they are downloading slugs from S3.
