StackOverflow Is Offline

Whelp, this couldn’t have happened at a funnier time for me. I’ve been pushing for their paid solution to be used in our team for months, finally got the sign off from compliance, etc.<p>Outage occurs halfway through my presentation to the whole team, shortly after I’d been discussing how great it would be as a robust, highly available storage solution for our knowledge base!<p>Can’t help but laugh at the timing.

I recall reading an article, years ago, how stack overflow is ran off of the equivalent of like two on-prem servers that could take the load way better and far more cheaply than an &quot;enterprise cloud architecture&quot; could.<p>I thought it was an amazing example of how expensive it is to be in the cloud. I didn&#x27;t think about the high availability benefits of the cloud...<p>Think they still run off of a few servers or did they ever migrate to the cloud?

Google cache seems to have most of the useful content available

Still down for me.

Seems to be ok now.
