Amazon Web Services Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • rvmishra Rakesh Mishra (@rvmishra) reported

    @QuinnyPig @awscloud Yes, AWS having this problem, if you request Azure then they will consider as a guesture and ask to use 100$ discount on 1st invoice generated but AWS never

  • jmeickle James Meickle (@jmeickle) reported

    @QuinnyPig @awscloud Can't see the outage for the leaves ✅

  • ghaff Gordon Haff (@ghaff) reported

    @QuinnyPig @awscloud Yeah, I see way too much of: "So what if you get a $100 or maybe $1K bill. You can probably negotiate it down." That sounds absolutely terrifying for a lot of people that one would think these providers would be welcoming into their ecosystem.

  • Meezerected Meeze Leatherwood (@Meezerected) reported

    Yo @awscloud what am I paying for if y’all dont have capacity for me to log in? Fix this ****. Been 2 hours already. Costing me money.

  • h00tcom h00t (@h00tcom) reported

    @alexwlchan @awscloud needs to credit this account. I’ve wholly sworn off using their services myself for my side projects specifically because of this issue in the past that has SOMEHOW still not been fixed.

  • barmijo Barmijo (@barmijo) reported

    @alexwlchan @h00tcom @awscloud This has been going on since the launch of EC2. In a talk around 2007 or 2008 that I attended, Werner Vogels discussed the issues AWS was having with folks incurring huge bills due to programming errors. They’ve had plenty of time to fix this.

  • _becn Slow down I missed that (@_becn) reported

    @alexwlchan If @awscloud had an option to hard shut down everything if costs reached $fixed cost then I’d sign up for that in a heartbeat. Allowing this to happen is irresponsible

  • nitthin Nitthin (@nitthin) reported

    It’s takes under 24 hours for @awscloud team to solve an issue. In 10 days and 2 meetings with different “teams”, @Azure hasn’t even got to “capturing” the problem. No wonder AWS is kickass and killing it in the market!

  • CodeSyncApp CodeSync (@CodeSyncApp) reported

    @aselipsky @awscloud @Siemens In other words, the industry is trending away from Kubernetes and towards more developer-friendly systems. Even “managed Kubernetes” (GKE, EKS) is too complex. Adding one more layer of indirection solves the problem :)

  • Sh1bumi Christian Rebischke (@Sh1bumi) reported

    @alech @awscloud Here a few ideas: * 1 day test work in the office * Solving problems together * Do not ignore recommendations from co-workers. * Solving real problems * Less Interviews / faster decisions * White board sessions

  • gmussman Grant Mussman (@gmussman) reported

    Hey @awscloud - you guys kinda stink... at least for the nontechie novice. First, your domain 53 kept charging me exactly $1 a month for a reason never determined, yet I’d shut down the account (which you made a pain in the arse) and finally, getting a callback from you is...

  • MrRobbieCook Robbie Cook (@MrRobbieCook) reported

    @QuinnyPig @awscloud I think that the problem here is that when Lex Luthor makes your cloud provider, EvilCorp don't gaf if you get charged too much

  • Klipkop12 Klipkop (@Klipkop12) reported

    @James_inthe_box @bad_packets @awscloud equestors can add the Genome IP addresses to the robots.txt apache, nginx or IIS file and Genome will respect this. If this is not applicable, such in the case that the host is not a web server, then please provide an IP address and/or subnets that you wish to prevent having ...

  • jabberwik Daniel Laughland (@jabberwik) reported

    Want to learn all the important deets about Amazon S3? Make sure to read the Developer Guide, the SDK docs for your platform, the REST API docs, and the IAM docs section for the service, or you may spend hours debugging the simplest issues. #aws

  • KrisGaisford Kris Gaisford (@KrisGaisford) reported

    People are leaving security to big companies. Even @awscloud says that their only responsible for their half of the security. While I believe companies should be more security focused and lock everything down to be anonymous. You can't count on it. @MySudoApp @signalapp

  • uptill_3 Adam (@uptill_3) reported

    @QuinnyPig @awscloud No spend cap makes it EXTREMELY tricky for govt to buy as well, due to anti-deficiency act issues (illegal to spend more than your budget).

  • nzicecool k6a w12e back in Australia 🇱🇰 🇦🇺🦘 (@nzicecool) reported

    @ebcarty @QuinnyPig @awscloud Just b'cos it's free people don't want to use it. I don't want to use it b'cos poor UX any many other issues of using it.

  • GlennBroadhurst Glenn Broadhurst (@GlennBroadhurst) reported

    @AWSSupport Been trying to get my case escalated without success - all AuDa Domains are failing to renew and your system is broken will not allow the update of contact details.

  • brotheraaronn A-a-ron he/him (@brotheraaronn) reported

    @LeeRoyKing13 @QuinnyPig @awscloud Ah, I see. Why not both? Create a solution for immediate problem & continue advocate for better long term solution from AWS. I'm pretty confident AWS will never implement these kind of cost guard rails and since I'm not a multibillion $ company, I doubt I could get AWS to change.

  • Sh1bumi Christian Rebischke (@Sh1bumi) reported

    @alech @awscloud I know that i am not the only one with that Problem. I know a few very talented people who get rejected because of such reasons as well. I don't really think that these interviews help fighting implicit biases.

  • saravanan444 Saravanan (@saravanan444) reported

    @awscloud #aws what’s is the best way to delete lot of small files from efs? Trying from an ec2 and it’s so slow!!!

  • pr0teusbr Felipe Pr0teus (@pr0teusbr) reported

    @AWSSupport there is a ACM limit of 10 domains but the web interface doesn`t enforce it and you only discovery when is too late and have to do everything again. Can you fix it ?

  • chrisjensenj Chris Jensen (@chrisjensenj) reported

    It's this kind of thing that entrenches privilege in tech, but @awscloud and @googlecloud aren't incentivised to fix this because it would cost them money to implement and they would cost them revenue they could make from revenue from innocent mistakes

  • AlexandreSieira Alexandre Sieira (@AlexandreSieira) reported

    Hey @AWSSupport … the AWS-UpdateSSMAgent document fails BUT reports success if the AWS CLI is not installed in an instance. Found that out the hard way on an Ubuntu instance. Please fix this. #awswishlist

  • duanenickull Duane Nickull (@duanenickull) reported

    Having bad experience. We use AWS @awscloud EC2 for client hosting needs. One server is down/won't accept any incoming connections (SSL, HTTP/S). Opened a support case ( we pay extra for support) but no response in over 36 hours. Meanwhile our client is w/o server.

  • kunalbagaria12 Kunal Bagaria (@kunalbagaria12) reported

    @QANplatform @awscloud Link not working.

  • rogerdrags DJ Roger 1970's Legend & Chef Ruby Cabernet 🕺💃🌈 (@rogerdrags) reported

    @awscloud Our Bookshop once had a big problem. Customers got a pre conceived idea that Amazon were cheaper. Some books were, so in the year 2000 we became the 1st Bookshop to price match Amazon UK. Then we used technology to solve the big problem & 10 years ago made most books cheaper.

  • DennisFaucher 💉dɛnɪs foʊʃeɪ💉 (@DennisFaucher) reported

    @VMwareTanzu Hahahahahahaha. Very helpful @awscloud "{"errorMessage":"RequestId: f209ef02-f60b-4163-aed0-bfc96a282f5b Error: Runtime exited without providing a reason","errorType":"Runtime.ExitError"}"

  • vkalpesh Kalpesh Vaghela (@vkalpesh) reported

    @awscloud if my running ec2 instance failed due to some os level issue in my instance but my instance status is running but I am not able to access. How can I check what is the exact status of my ec2 instance

  • weareayafilms Aya Films (@weareayafilms) reported

    @AWSSupport Our AWS server is down, since Friday. Our developers are unable to work, which is very frustrating. We've reported the issue, but had no response. Can you advise?
