Re: developers.google.com is down

Yep, sounds like the AppEngine outage. Kind of scary given the AWS cloud failure earlier this week.

In the past (such as AWS in June) it was classic power loss and generator failures. However in these cases, a simple single hardware fault led to cascading, runaway failures that crippled the entire service. From a systems design approach, these failures are much more troubling given that these are the two largest Cloud players, and they cannot even get it right.

Beware of the cloud if every minute of uptime counts.

Sincerely,

Joseph
