How many other people are effected by the Amazon EBS Outage?
Greetings, http://tech.slashdot.org/story/12/10/22/1941237/amazon-ebs-failure-brings-do... I've been effected - although we have geographical failover. Others? " AWS's massive computing footprint has been estimated to generate 1% of all Internet traffic, withnearly one-third of Internet users <http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9226349/Amazon_cloud_accessed_daily_by_a_third_of_all_Net_users>accessing sites that use AWS daily, according to a report from DeepField Networks, which provides cloud mapping capabilities."
We got off of AWS a while back, but some of the services we rely on like HipChat are down. Sean On Mon, Oct 22, 2012 at 4:19 PM, Robert Keizer <robert@keizer.ca> wrote:

I'm not affected. Then again I am somewhat of a Luddite. There was, however, a good comment on Slashdot... "It's as if millions of geek voices cried out in terror & were suddenly silenced." Here is another with more of a zen tone to it... "If a geek cries out in terror and there's not site to read it on, do they really cry out in terror?" Later Mike
