Massive Dyn DNS outage

#1

Post by jtmarmon » Fri, Oct 21, 2016, 11:30 AM UTC

Sites down:

- DYN

- Twitter

- Etsy

- Github

- soundcloud

- spotify

- heroku

- pagerduty

- shopify

- intercom (app, not landing page)

Note that if these sites seem to be up to you, it's likely that your machine has cached the DNS response for these sites.

Some of these sites seem to work when using a UK VPN

github.com itself isn't resolving in some parts of the world. status.github.com is a beautiful default nginx 404 page.

Reddit is out -- my productivity is up, and I'm not happy about it.

No parts of Github are up for me (Ottawa). Over to you, Bitbucket.

GitHub employee here. We're monitoring an incident with our upstream DNS provider:

not very useful to post a status update on a site that is experiencing the same issues with the same DNS provider.

maybe post a github gist? oh wait...

CircleCI is also down. As well as github hooks to slack.
