Lowest Cost Cloud Load Testing Tool

Amazon S3 Down

Posted Sun, 02/17/2008 - 10:31am by Roger Campbell

Several hours of downtime with Amazon's Simple Storage Service last Friday caused other services that rely on Amazon's infrastructure to have problems. Twitter, Tumblr, SmugMug and others that depend on S3 were down or having problems. This challenges the wisdom of using cloud computing but it is important to distinguish between availability and data loss. In this case there was limited availability but no data loss. There have been no reports of data loss with S3, and we need to be comparing this kind of a service with the alternatives of running your own SAN along with the supporting connections to the outside world.
