Solve : Amazon.com outage: US and Canada service fails for 49 minutes? |
|
Answer» Not to be outdone by the mysterious Google internet outage... The REASON for the outage remains unknown, and at the time of publishing Amazon had not responded to V3's request for comment. If they are like Google we will never get an explanation of what actually happened unless it is something CAUSED by criminal actions. Estimates of lost sales are around $5 million. When you think about it, that is very little down time for all the years that have been up. Hope they will tell what happened.Not that long. They also went down in October 2012 along with a number of other domains. If we are keeping score here I would say that Google is much, much better prepared for "disaster" than Amazon and many others. Getting that big of a service back online in 5 minutes is actually pretty darn impressive. Quote from: evilfantasy on August 20, 2013, 10:47:46 PM Not that long.

I agree. Around the first of the year the Cox Communications email server crashed in Oklahoma and several other states. It was somewhere around 72 hours before they fixed it. And they just happened to go down on a FRIDAY. People were not happy. |
