    @AWSSupport Again there is a mass wave of suspensions like in May I'm assuming in error as I've been on this platform for over 10 years and this seems to be happen more frequently. Emails from mturk-noreply havent worked in a long time,any updates on this situation @amazonmturk

    @awscloud I signed up w/ new account to get @AWS_Gov. Got usual error. Created ticket. At about 3pm. Just got my phone call. At 11:30. AT NIGHT! To then get a message while on hold that there was an error, that a tech was assigned to case & would call me back. C'mon!

    @ivanburazin Why are you still using windows server ? It’s less than 10 minutes to fire up a @awscloud ECS cluster running free Linux

    @AWSSupport Why does this feel like a stage for subscriptions hikes on other hosting providers. Previously human error was deemed the highest risk for error but if humans made AI 🤔

    @jonny_castles @awscloud I am seeing this too, ECR and S3 in eu-west-1, lots of "service unavailable" errors

    AMAZON AWS PAYS $127K/MO FOR CLOUD COMPUTING. SERGEY BOUGHT CHEAP SERVER RACK + CLAUDE AI. MAKES $318K Pause at 0:11 — rack with 40+ servers. Every indicator glows green. This is local computing. Zero latency. Zero cloud bills. Sergey, 35, Ukraine. Was AWS architect, $7,200/month. Understands: companies pay Amazon millions, but they can do same calculations locally. Bought used server rack for $4,800. Installed Claude AI for local processing. 78 companies pay $4,077/month each instead of $12K on AWS. Amazon offered $4,200,000. Sergey said: "You profit from dependency. I profit from freedom." Why — in video.

    Heyo again @AWSSupport, thanks for fixing the issue! My bill is only $503 now. That's much better, it's okay now!

    Peter DeSantis talking at #agenticaisummit There will NOT be one AI chip type. If multiple AI chips take multiple years to bring to market, you have to be making assumptions about model requirements in that time frame. It's a systems problem, including the network. Constraint drives innovation. Future is bright and built together. Peter DeSantis SVP, Foundational AI Models, Custom Silicon, Quantum Computing, Amazon @awscloud @amazon @BerkeleyRDI

    @_LeadPoisoning_ @awscloud That’s because it’s never up long enough to generate an error

    @santhoshv @AWSSupport @awscloud I had an s3 bucket with some data in worth 2-3 mb at max. At first I thought someone hacked into my account. I raised a billing inquiry, after which I realised that this was an ongoing issue.

    @awscloud you should fix it otherwise people will become sick after watching the bill!

    @LayoffAI During the last 12 months Amazon AWS had outages directly caused by initiatives from the AI group (with associated revenue impact). No surprise they are down sizing the snake oil sales men group.

    @BohemiaTech @awscloud Google just randomly shuts down services for no clear reason. That’s why they’re not trusted

    @CalebChamberla6 It’s an AWS billing error (see @awscloud)

    Day 1 : "How to Scale an App to 10 Million Users on AWS" If I have to design a system for 10 million users, I won't build everything on Day 1 because it will add unnecessary complexity and cost. I'll start simple with one application server and one database. As traffic grows, if the server starts reaching its CPU, memory, or storage limits, I'll first scale vertically by moving to a bigger instance. Once that is not enough, I'll separate the backend and database so both can scale independently. To avoid a single point of failure, I'll deploy the application across multiple Availability Zones and put a Load Balancer in front so if one server or AZ goes down, traffic is automatically routed to healthy servers. As the number of users keeps increasing, I'll make my application stateless by storing sessions in Redis. This allows me to add multiple application servers behind the Load Balancer and scale horizontally. If my database starts getting overloaded with reads, I'll use Redis to cache frequently accessed data and add read replicas to distribute read traffic. For static assets like images, CSS, and JavaScript, I'll store them in Amazon S3 and serve them through CloudFront so requests don't keep hitting my application servers. If traffic suddenly spikes during sales or events, I'll enable Auto Scaling with CloudWatch metrics so AWS automatically adds or removes servers based on demand. As the application becomes larger, I'll split the monolith into microservices. This allows each service, like authentication, payments, or notifications, to scale independently instead of scaling the entire application. If the database becomes the bottleneck, especially for write operations, I'll use sharding or federation depending on the data and business requirements. Finally, when users are spread across the world, I'll deploy the application in multiple AWS Regions to reduce latency and improve availability. My approach is always the same: find the bottleneck, solve that bottleneck, and only introduce more complexity when the current architecture can no longer handle the traffic.

    @awscloud Wow, that’s it, no explanation? No, and for your trouble, and extra work and panic, a free month of service or anything. Just our bad, see you next month?

    @kankerhoerrrrrr @marcelocantos @awscloud And you had no response for "what's the alternative to shutting down services, just pay the bill?" Maybe you really are an AI bot instead of a retard.

    @AWSSupport Two days into migrating to AWS and both new accounts I created are locked out of every single service. S3, EC2, Lambda, DynamoDB, all of it. The accounts show as ACTIVE. Support confirmed it needs a manual fix from an internal team, then went quiet for 28 hours. Three open cases, one phone call, still completely blocked. Sitting on AWS credits I literally cannot spend. Do better please!

    Anjishnu Ganguly (@Anjishnu46) reported

    @AWSSupport @awscloud, please don't reply again just to say this was shared internally. Assign someone who can actually look at the account, explain what's blocking it, and fix it.

    Self hosting your email server is something that Is very tricky and I still can't grasp till today. The craziest part is not the setup but managing the email server reputation. I rather pay @Cloudflare or @awscloud.
