Certainly not ideal for a group of websites that huge. I wonder if this will be one of those cases where I get to read an interesting technical write-up of the outage.
Parts of GitHub, Amazon, Stripe and Twitter are down too. I'm sure these companies have considered this downside to outsourcing critical infrastructure.<p>It would be interesting to see estimations on the man-hour cost of even a short outage.
Somebody has to pay for this, definitely Fastly. I want a full investigation and an elaborate post mortem of the most intricate of details.<p>No stone unturned, lots of people lost billions because of this.
