I always love it when some massive piece of web infrastructure goes down but most websites I use are self-hosted so the only real effect is I see lots of news stories that cloudflare is down.

So far this year its been:

  1. AWS was massively down
  2. Azure was down a week later
  3. Cloudflare down multiple times this year

Thats the ones that affect stuff at work. Fun times.

Azure was down? Did anyone notice? πŸ˜†

If you're stuck with Windows at work, you might have. I couldn't log on to our domain remotely and was unable to open some documents and emails that were signed as "internal use only".

Starbucks payments sure did.

Mostly at work. All our stuff was on Azure, so when it went down....I kinda just stood around for the day. It was up/down the entire day. So I went for a coffee lol.

It’s a vibe.

Dang. I had to look it up, but CrowdStike taking down a huge percentage of Windows PCs was so last year, I guess.

My services have a higher uptime than AWS, Azure and Cloudflare despite the fact that they are running on 10 year old hardware
