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

June 24, 2008 · Comments 

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.
