#42I 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.
Mine is in Japanese: > 申し訳ありません。 > リクエストの処理中に問題が発生しました。 現在問題を調査しておりますので、解決するまでもう少々お待ちください。
Gotta love how polite standard business Japanese is. It's no wonder they named their moon probe after this national treasure of a philosophy.

#43Only the most informed and rational companies will see how and why most of this "in the cloud" thing is a bad idea.
Most will accept it as a fact of life and continue to pay for it both directly and indirectly, as long as there's cheap money going around the cloud business can't do wrong.
But it's hilarious to see people indulging in byzantine "World scale" resilient systems that depend on a single vendor.

#44I wonder if it's the log4j thing... AWS is built on Java, and I'd be very surprised if log4j isn't used heavily there.

Same in the Netherlands.

#46Amazon’s going to have to start paying out on some SLAs if this goes on for much longer…
There’s no SLA for the console, IIRC.

#47It 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).
This morning I’d bet more on a rushed log4j patch. They use it heavily.

On the contrary, downtime is inevitable and I think I'd rather have downtime when all my competitors do too.

#49Still no post mortem from Monday's right? We're all still in the dark?
When I've worked with AWS and other providers before, they've typically given early indications about potential root causes under NDA. If you're a small customer, you probably get to wait with the rest of us but the big folks probably have some idea of the root cause.
