Do you use an Amazon Web Service? Then CloudStatus may be useful for your monitoring efforts

June 24, 2008

CloudStatus recently launched Amazon Web Services Health Summary. The charts displayed on CloudStatus are real-time health status of Amazon Web Service (AWS). The site also shows the last twenty four hours of health history for key Amazon Web Services.

Why is this such a big deal? Amazon Web Services is being used by a lot of startups and more than 60,000 customers who rely on scalability, reliability and on-demand usage. And when this service goes down, it’s surely going to be a breaking news all over the Internet.

Some of popular and noteworthy sites that are using AWS are Twitter, Smugmug, Justin.tv, ShareThis, Alexa, 37signals, AdBrite and a lot more. Our very own Eskwela.com also uses AWS.

Using CloudStatus as an additional monitoring service should help you quickly react to future outages.
