Core of the downtime is DynamoDB, the blast radius is ... huge 🤯

If you need to communicate to your clients, an independently hosted status page like @OhDearApp is your best friend! Downtime will happen, it's often out of your control, but you can decide how you communicate with your users 💪

AWS Health Dashboard is now updated to follow on their status: health.aws.amazon.com/health…

We're noticing an increased amount of downtime notifications to our clients this morning, the common theme seems to be webservices that use DynamoDB in us-east-1 on AWS. 🚨

Our Request Mirror public tool also got a little update with more curl examples and extensive JSON, XML & HTML output to reflect request HTTP headers in testing. 🥳 request-mirror.ohdear.app/

A small but useful update to our Uptime report page: if we detect downtime, we'll cleanly separate the responses from both our primary & secondary location in tabs 👏 This'll be the default view when a site is down, focussing the entire page on the downtime and steps to reproduce the request (with the curl example). 💪

We're opening up private beta access to a new AI monitoring feature at @OhDearApp 👀 Go way beyond HTTP/200, checkstring or even crawler monitoring by unleashing advanced website validation such as: "Notify me when ohdear.app does not have at least five product features, a login link, at least 10 testimonials, a pricing block and a blogpost that's at most 1 month old" Or: "Notify me when the pricing of my competitor at {url-a} goes below my pricing at {url-b}. In the notification, tell me exactly how much cheaper they are" The options are ... seriously ... insane 🤯 But we need some help to finetune the UI/UX, let us know if you'd like to help test in our blogpost! ohdear.app/news-and-updates/…

Thanks Troy, happy to partner up with you & @haveibeenpwned 💪
