Every single post along these lines gets some comment about how it's acceptable/understandable because they've had such a massive influx of usage but I'm sorry at this point it's completely unacceptable for a service which acts as such a vital part of so many organization's workflows to have this level of downtime.

Given I've never worked at an organization at such scale, but there have been several other companies who have experienced large influxes of usage and been able to scale WAY more gracefully than github. It's not even like these outages are some delayed worker assignment due to higher supply than demand, it's just complete outages that make deployment impossible.

Simply unacceptable, hopefully this one doesn't take the NN hours it did last time to resolve.
