Tseng (@TsengSR) reported@marcelocantos @awscloud I'm 100% certain you'd also crying a river when hard caps are added and the same happens again, because then your services will be shut down immediately until they resolve it and you'll cry too, how they'd dare to take your services offline when reaching the cap due to an error.

Aaryan Bansal (@NotUnHackable) reported@awscloud that issue was happening since yesterday dude. why tf did it take so much time?

Payal (@payal_codes) reportedDay 1 : "How to Scale an App to 10 Million Users on AWS" If I have to design a system for 10 million users, I won't build everything on Day 1 because it will add unnecessary complexity and cost. I'll start simple with one application server and one database. As traffic grows, if the server starts reaching its CPU, memory, or storage limits, I'll first scale vertically by moving to a bigger instance. Once that is not enough, I'll separate the backend and database so both can scale independently. To avoid a single point of failure, I'll deploy the application across multiple Availability Zones and put a Load Balancer in front so if one server or AZ goes down, traffic is automatically routed to healthy servers. As the number of users keeps increasing, I'll make my application stateless by storing sessions in Redis. This allows me to add multiple application servers behind the Load Balancer and scale horizontally. If my database starts getting overloaded with reads, I'll use Redis to cache frequently accessed data and add read replicas to distribute read traffic. For static assets like images, CSS, and JavaScript, I'll store them in Amazon S3 and serve them through CloudFront so requests don't keep hitting my application servers. If traffic suddenly spikes during sales or events, I'll enable Auto Scaling with CloudWatch metrics so AWS automatically adds or removes servers based on demand. As the application becomes larger, I'll split the monolith into microservices. This allows each service, like authentication, payments, or notifications, to scale independently instead of scaling the entire application. If the database becomes the bottleneck, especially for write operations, I'll use sharding or federation depending on the data and business requirements. Finally, when users are spread across the world, I'll deploy the application in multiple AWS Regions to reduce latency and improve availability. My approach is always the same: find the bottleneck, solve that bottleneck, and only introduce more complexity when the current architecture can no longer handle the traffic.

Santhosh (@santhoshv) reported@D8118199174282 @AWSSupport Many stopped services, also I never assumed health issues with billing itself
-
Jan Jezek (@jbodl) reported@awscloud First you sent alerts that the account was over budget by 6-figure numbers. When the user logged in, the billing console confirmed the same. No banner there was an issue, no followup email, nothing. Just wannabe funny jokes on X. Seriously, AWS?
-
Shaaaaaaaaan (@AryavartKSamrat) reported@Sahilvyas29 @JeffBezos @AWSSupport Its a amazon glitch man. Read about it.

Md Jaoyad (@JaoyadCode) reported@awscloud you should fix it otherwise people will become sick after watching the bill!
-
RickDavis404 (@RickDavis404) reported@awscloud I left an EKS cluster running while waiting for my Fable 5 limit to reset...only been a few days, but Opus says my aws bill was pretty accurate, just a small rounding error, still over 950 trillion dollars 🤑

devastatindave.eth (@NftCelestials) reported@awscloud totally avoidable error caused by reliance on unskilled h1b scabs ya'll will learn eventually
-
Nil (@slowalgorithm) reported@awscloud The LEAST you can do is to give some compensation. This mistake caused operational issues for several companies across the globe.
-
Zenwatts 🇺🇸 (@BullCall101) reported@awscloud Not my problem. Maybe sell a yacht or two and fix it yourself.

Shobhit Shrivastava (@shri_shobhit) reported@adamr_1776 I left Amazon AWS around 2019. From what I recall it was something like issues dot Amazon dot com

lak-alak (@baricadelane) reported@IanCarrollShow @BacklotOPS @NickJFreitas They must think we are stupid Tyler Robinson decoys all over the place d captured on camera all doing their part for 1990s pixalated images produced and sold as 4k in 2026 lmao. Why did Amazon aws services shut down 9/10 - 9/25? Who owns discord?

Kartik Jain (@kartikjain0101) reported@awscloud you guy has lost your mind. payment got missing so team told me they will raising the request. account got hold, we have 250K unused credits, and now they are not initiation the account. wtf. our whole production is down.

GettingMyGlitchOff (@GettingMyGlitch) reported@AWSSupport Again there is a mass wave of suspensions like in May I'm assuming in error as I've been on this platform for over 10 years and this seems to be happen more frequently. Emails from mturk-noreply havent worked in a long time,any updates on this situation @amazonmturk

Certified AI Dev (@MisterPrashant) reportedThis solution to this problem is AI traffic monetization. If you are an owner of a platform that provides some valuable data, you can put the data behind a paywall for the AI traffic by charging the bot fraction of a penny for using their content. x402 Payment Required protocol tells the bot that the content requires payment and the bot settles the transaction quickly on a stable coin at which point the content becomes accessible. This way,people running their search bots does not require subscription to 10 different services and can easily access data from anywhere at a very minimal cost and the owners of the sites also win as the traffic count to their paywalled site will generate income. This is not a concept. The framework to build this is already available in @awscloud today.

Gabriel (@doktorgphd) reported@awscloud wow really??? i had to search x for the reason?? not even an email?? I saw the email sent yesterday about the cost alert and I spend the last hour trying to work out what is going on because it looks very legit and I only find out it was an error on x! Just had to send an email!!
-
Harikrishna KP (@harikp2002) reported@AWSSupport Two days into migrating to AWS and both new accounts I created are locked out of every single service. S3, EC2, Lambda, DynamoDB, all of it. The accounts show as ACTIVE. Support confirmed it needs a manual fix from an internal team, then went quiet for 28 hours. Three open cases, one phone call, still completely blocked. Sitting on AWS credits I literally cannot spend. Do better please!
-
Robert Culver (@senorculver) reported@awscloud Wow, that’s it, no explanation? No, and for your trouble, and extra work and panic, a free month of service or anything. Just our bad, see you next month?
-
Edward Donner (@edwarddonner) reported@okko @awscloud @AWSSupport That's why it's opt in. Netflix would likely not opt in and be fine with the risk. You could join them if you wish. I would prefer to face an outage if AWS has another billing disaster than have unbounded exposure.

Clem ent (@clement___10) reportedSelf hosting your email server is something that Is very tricky and I still can't grasp till today. The craziest part is not the setup but managing the email server reputation. I rather pay @Cloudflare or @awscloud.
-
* (@BunnnyRAM18) reported@amazonIN @awscloud The same issue happened twice for these product
-
M (@mdw864) reported@AWSSupport Either that or ask me to login, which I keep telling you I cannot login. It has nothing to do with 2FA. That is not the issue.
-
Gerzson (@Gerzsononline) reported@slap__tjips @awscloud Gosh ai haters are so ******* dumb they just assume and blame it on ai for a funny error that didn’t result in any wrong

S (@cloudsurf3) reported@awscloud Take down that other tone-deaf tweet, pure mockery of your customers
