This is the text on their homepage: "We're sorry! An error occurred when we tried to process your request. Rest assured, we're working to resolve the problem as soon as possible. If you were trying to make a purchase, please check Your Account to confirm that the order was placed. We apologize for the inconvenience. "

I look forward to learning more about Amazon as a company by reading later about how they handle this situation.

Up for me right now

msegal3vor 10 Jahren

Yes they just went back up...

detarovor 10 Jahren

International versions (tried .de and .es) seem to be up, interestingly enough.

As is IMDB.com.

bezaorjvor 10 Jahren

Amazon owns IMDB.com , are any other Amazon services down ?

I think AMZ had a Bad Push. They seem to have a new homepage design loading. Yikes

It's back up now. That's quick. What's their uptime SLA number? 99.999%? That is a 5minute 15s per year downtime.

Other services like seller central and amazon canada is working normally.

There's a notification in SC

"Seller Central was down from 11:20 to 11:38 PST today. We have corrected this issue, and sellers are now able to access Seller Central. We apologize for any inconvenience."

I didn't notice it down, though.

The homepage loads, but I can't get any search results on amazon canada.

msegal3vor 10 Jahren

Seller Central was down for a few minutes - looks like it is back up now...

msegal3vor 10 Jahren

Just came back for a quick second, and than right back to being down.

Wow, every minute lost is so damaging.

msegal3vor 10 Jahren

Millions of dollars per minute!

ikeboyvor 10 Jahren

100 billion yearly turns into around 200K per minute.

Just when I need to print up receipts

So much for the cloud.

freehuntervor 10 Jahren

That's not even the cloud. It's a website. Amazon is more than just AWS, this is impacting Amazon.com.

aalbertsonvor 10 Jahren

While true, amazon.com does run on AWS now.

booopvor 10 Jahren

AWS is alright though: http://status.aws.amazon.com/

Can't remember the last time this happened to zon...

Huh, looks like capitalizing the DOWN made this get 4 times as many votes than https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11261484 as of now

Edit: and now title has been edited to down. Was capital when I posted.

bezaorjvor 10 Jahren

the other one did not appear when I sorted by new , only this one

ikeboyvor 10 Jahren

I see it in incognito, and in https://archive.is/w3glR

Does HN hide some links selectively?
