CloudatCost said that they were going to do a Q&A and answer questions about the last outage. They don't appear to have managed to do so before another outage hit!!
I think they've had a small one before this one but, after the major on too. I think they might be scared to answer questions haha.
-
Still down here.
-
I can login to the panel but can't use the console or get to any of my boxes directly. It was working fine earlier.
-
Still down here. This is a pretty epic outage.
-
Their silence is deafening...
-
There blaming it on rogers. I don't see how they don't have any failover.

A minute or two you can blame on a carrier, after that, the fault is not having failover. And after having already learned this lesson, there is no one else to blame at this point.

Six hours and even their Twitter feed is dead. They've not just gone offline as a product, they've gone dark as a company.
-
This the last of their Twitter feed. People having been Tweeting at them continuously and they are not responding to anyone.
-
The Twitter feed is pretty entertaining...

The Twitter people are right. This makes you worry not only that CloudatCost is having problems but it means that Fibernets doesn't have redundancy and is out and, supposedly, that Rogers is out too. Basically a huge chain of dependencies. This doesn't just make you question one company, this makes you question doing business with Canada! It's the entire national infrastructure being called into question here.

The last comment of this is probably the best thing I've ever read!
-
I am not surprised at all...

I wouldn't use their servers even in a test environment. Maybe a personal lab, but even that isn't worth the constant frustration.

That's what I've decided based on all the down times and having my server not be able to boot. I really want the money back I paid.
-
Yup, at this point, even lab use is becoming a poor choice. Days of outages, no response at all. Zero response to customers. Too much effort even for a lab.

IT people have good memories and are not lenient on down time. Do this once and it will always be remembered. Do it twice and you will never gain full trust again, do it 3 or more times and its just rather pathetic.
There has been hours of downtime more than 3 times in the past 2-3 months if I am not mistaken?

Sounds right.
