Soundcloud recovering from this failure and S3 being operational are two separate issues. We use S3 and it will take us nominally an hour to recover after S3 went up, for example.

S3 has started working as of about 20 minutes ago, and things are running smoothly.

Thanks!

There are other Amazon services that were affected. For example, we're still not seeing auto scaling groups working correctly.

"[RESOLVED] Increased Error Rates

Update at 2:08 PM PST: As of 1:49 PM PST, we are fully recovered for operations for adding new objects in S3, which was our last operation showing a high error rate. The Amazon S3 service is operating normally."

oh the famous downvote for the smear campaign. just admit it.

You're getting downvotes because you don't understand that B being down is not an effective indicator of the status of A, even if B depends on A.

Think you're mistaken, I don't have downvote privileges!

Claiming a statement is false when it's demonstrably true is something that will likely get downvoted every time. It's misleading to others and fills the board with noise.
