AWS Us-east-1 has broken itself on a European Monday morning.

So far we have Slack being slow and image attachments preview broken.

No SSO auth with Atlassian (JIRA, OpsGenie, and Confluence)

Sadly, I looks to be resolving. Back to work 🥲

My former company wouldn’t let me rearchitect our apps to be regionally redundant because “the cloud never goes down”. All their stuff is in us-east-1… wonder how they’re doing!

Having the day they paid to have. Beautiful.

Hasn't us-east-1 had major outages like, multiple times?

[-] ramble81@lemmy.zip 6 points 4 months ago

It has, and I’ve been told “it’s a fluke” or “it’s not worth the effort”, followed by them freaking out with us being down and all the money we’re losing and what can we do about it.

So far we've got atlassian and our HR system being broken. But we're mostly CCP and azure for our dev stuff so that's all fine.

I know that feeling mate.

So far, nothing. We have our servers in-house.

I did my part!

Same here. We have some privacy stuff, so if course it's not going into a CLOUD ACT server.

But, we still also inexplicably use teams and outlook. Too bad those didn't stay down.

Of all things, we lost some Azure services the longest. There was some unexpected dependency in our code on aws us-east-1 and the azure services didn’t recover

OpenVNO telephony despite us being in France.

Also Reddit, it's still a major work tool haha.

Slack working but full of opsgenie alerts.

Firefox doesn't let you use port 6000 to connect to things.

Why?!

Gotta change to a higher value I guess.

Other ports too, so it's probably ranges.

Back in the day you stayed out of ports under 1024 and that was it.
