Ping?
replyApparently Outlook, Gmail, etc are all working on the server at 192.168.1.1 then - ping says it's responding just fine
replyFull Disclosure, this is a Cisco product and I work there.
replyThousandEyes Internet Insights offers a public outage map at https://www.thousandeyes.com/outages/ that is MASSIVELY more accurate (and faster to detect) than Down Detector because its based on actual telemetry and not on crowdsourcing.
Thank you for the recommendation!
replyThey indicate sharepoint is getting blown out... again.
still down :)
replyHonestly I trust downdetector more than that. Crowdsourcing always wins.
replyDowndetector said basically everything was down today (including Google, AWS, etc.) but they aren't affected. This makes me NOT trust downdetector.
replyIt is ironic that this outage map _also_ is not loading for me right now
replyYes, just to confirm, it seems that our platform is getting hammered at the moment and it's causing the page to take a long time to load or intermittently load. We are looking into it.
replyHow ironic
replyIt is back up now.
replyThere will be a more detailed message when we finish the SII on our status page at the link I previously provided, but the short version is we took way more traffic than normal to our platform and the related workers were running out of memory.
[dead]
replyit seems to be down... lol
replyLOL. Share defaults to X.com
replyseems smart to link to the most popular platform by default. there's other share links at the bottom for the less popular ones
replyIt's not that popular, is it?
It's tiny compared to, like, Whatsapp.
replyThe public outage map is primarily a marketing page, because customers receive deeper insights in-product. Given that most people discuss outages live/up-to-the-minute on Twitter, that is why its where we default to sharing.
replyThe snarky but honest response is HackerNews/Reddit. But if you're trying for something that actually checks the sites you point it at instead of relying on users reporting "issues", a buddy of mine runs https://onlineornot.com/ and it seems generally more reliable.
replyBack in the golden days you could just go to search.twitter.com, search "AWS", and sort by recent.
replyStill can. AWS Status pages are still terrible. See HN for the outage a year ago https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45640838
reply> Still can.
replyNo. It requires an account now, and they did away with the recent posts firehose.
"Start Free Trial" -- uh, no thanks. You seem skeptical of crowd sourcing. Enjoy your Encyclopedia Brittanica.
replyMy extensive DDoS bot network... er I mean my distributed website validation platform!
