Possibly due to the current Google Cloud outage. https://status.cloud.google.com/incident/compute/19008
i thought the entire point of the cloud was to make stuff like this not cause your site to go down, or did someone realize that only had to be part of the marketing
No the point is when the cloud goes down you can stay in bed because someone else is sorting it out for you.
excrement does hit the air-conditioning time to time
The cloud doesn't go down- regions and services inside that region go down.
A region (or AZ for Amazon) is no more or less reliable then your run of the mill DC

True, but then the question is it cheaper to build your own redundancy or duplicate all/most infrastructure across multiple zones? Once that becomes the question, the cloud not longer looks so simple or cost effective.
Exactly for this, I have built https://IncidentOK.com which sends alert over email/slack to user if any third party services like this reports an outage or incident.
I regularly see your comment (or ones for similar services) on these types of posts.
I assume the strategy is working as you keep replying, but have you considered starting posting yourself, as a measure of "you can independently verify how quickly we spotted this outage"?
(For what it's worth, for the alert component you can do it yourself for free by subscribing to individual status pages (assuming they have the option) to the email-to-Slack integration.)

I see only two references. Do you see more than that?
