Amazon’s going to have to start paying out on some SLAs if this goes on for much longer…

This still seems to work for me, replace region with your region: .console.aws.amazon.com/" rel="nofollow">https:// .console.aws.amazon.com/

Testes this and it works fine. Thanks!

Anyone feel like Big Tech outages are happening more frequently recently? In recent months, we’ve seen Amazon Web Services, Facebook, Gmail, and Twitter go down.

Are we at the point where the people who maintain the infrastructure are now completely different than the ones who built it, and are struggling to keep it running because they don’t understand it as well?

I think also just finally getting to the point where they have a tech debt burden comparable to everyone else. Starting fresh has its advantages...for a while.

I wonder why the error message is also in … French? (I’m not located anywhere French speaking). > Désolés! > Une erreur s'est produite lorsque nous avons tenté de traiter votre requête. Soyez assuré que nous travaillons déjà à la résolution du problème que nous pensons trouver très rapidement.

I am in India and my message is in English and Japanese. Never seen a Japanese message on aws before.
