Summary
This is a Hacker News discussion thread where users are discussing AWS service status and monitoring tools. The original post asks if AWS is down, and responses include a Datadog employee sharing a monitoring link, UX feedback for the Updog monitoring service, and a report of specific EC2 instance issues in us-east-1c not transitioning out of Pending status. The discussion focuses on cloud service reliability, monitoring tools, and user experiences with AWS services.
Key quotes
· 3 pulledDisclosure, I work for Datadog: https://updog.ai/status/amazonaws Looks fine for now.
Piece of UX feedback for the product team behind Updog: company logos are not searchable. It should be easy to Ctrl-F and find a relevant cloud on that detector, instead of scrolling alphabetically.
You all should add EC2 - extra bonus if you have some way of tracking performance in addition to errors (right now we're seeing EC2 instances in us-east-1c not transition out of Pending status).
