How To
Figure out if AWS is broken
AWS occasionally has issues. To figure out whether the problem you are currently experiencing is their fault or not:
- Check the AWS status console to see if they are reporting any problems http://status.aws.amazon.com/
- Check the most recent messages on the forums https://forums.aws.amazon.com/index.jsp Problems often get reported there first.
- If you still do not find evidence that the problem is AWS's fault, search the forums for your particular issue. Its likely that someone else has run into the same exact problem in the past.
- Still no luck? Ask your coworkers and/or post a question to the forums.
