  @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?

  Somehow, GOES19 going down wasn’t the craziest thing to happen this week. Happy bankruptcy day to those who celebrate (I.e., have an @awscloud account)

  @googlecloud @GoogleCloudTech do you accommodate customers with disabilities? In case we have problems and need to speak to you? I think I may have to switch to you because @awscloud has not provided accommodations for people with disabilities.

  @opsolutehq @awscloud Otherwise, I believe it's not fully viable for full-range products. Example of Lovable: they have hundreds of potential use cases. That's where they are on credit-based systems rather than outcome-based systems, because you can't narrow down the overall cafeteria of use cases.

  @awscloud I'm sure no infra outage caused stress and had the same repercussions than this "issue" something must be done, I guess, no?

  @edwarddonner @awscloud @AWSSupport Combine a bug like that and spending caps, and the services would have been taken down and caused major losses of services worldwide.

  @AWSSupport Its the third day today. The only mail I received from aws was all about “We are getting someone to investigate this” Since then I havent received any update. My only issue is that these things are time sensitive and you cant just take days after days with no real status updates

  Unfortunately although they appear to be awesome people BrambleCFD is turning out to not be that hot. The main problem is the relationships/what they do of all the different settings is ridiculously opaque. There is no documentation. Their solution is to try to explain things in a video call, and if you need help, you ask for it, which it takes a week or more to get any kind of answer from an actual human, not because they are doing anything wrong but that's just not a good system. It's a long long way from the useability of simscale. I did however uncover an option that might be reasonably good, which is a virtual machine that I pay for the core-hours on. In many ways this is better. I can work directly with openFOAM and one of the front ends on a high powered linux computer with hundreds of gigs of ram and 96 high powered cores, and still only pay for what I use, theoretically. The openFOAM foundation has a system worked out ad directly offers the service, unfortunately they in turn use the amazon AWS or the microsoft Azure system, but what can you do. There are other companies that do similar things, but they probably aren't as well done as the one from the actual foundation. I think I'll try that one first. Having an AI in a harness on the machine is probably going to be indispensable, but I'll be using it primarily as a learning tool rather than asking it to do everything for me. I have been able to set up CowAgent, which is kind of basic but seems to work ok, with DeepSeek. A "harness" allows the AI to run commands on your computer and read the output automatically, as well as the other things web chat stuff can do. Secondly, it can store information in files and run the AI in a loop, doing many inferences one after the other, thus getting far more done than a web chat can (actually they might do something similar now IDK but they don't seem to).

  Heyo again @AWSSupport, thanks for fixing the issue! My bill is only $503 now. That's much better, it's okay now!

  @awscloud This is tone deaf. It wasn’t funny. It was upsetting. It reduced my trust in your systems, testing, and ability to roll back critical errors. I didn’t laugh. Why are you?

  @_LeadPoisoning_ @awscloud That’s because it’s never up long enough to generate an error

  Day 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.

  @awscloud Not my problem. Maybe sell a yacht or two and fix it yourself.

  AMAZON AWS PAYS $127K/MO FOR CLOUD COMPUTING. SERGEY BOUGHT CHEAP SERVER RACK + CLAUDE AI. MAKES $318K Pause at 0:11 — rack with 40+ servers. Every indicator glows green. This is local computing. Zero latency. Zero cloud bills. Sergey, 35, Ukraine. Was AWS architect, $7,200/month. Understands: companies pay Amazon millions, but they can do same calculations locally. Bought used server rack for $4,800. Installed Claude AI for local processing. 78 companies pay $4,077/month each instead of $12K on AWS. Amazon offered $4,200,000. Sergey said: "You profit from dependency. I profit from freedom." Why — in video.

  @OwenGregorian 1) Forgets how DNS works. AWS goes down for days. 2) Forgets how arithmetic & metering works. Trillion-dollar bills for scant usage. @awscloud Regretting all those mass layoffs of your veteran engineers yet?

  @AWSSupport No follow up email sent to users to let us know not to panic after we got threshold emails. I was sick this morning and lost hours of productivity. Terrible, truly terrible, customer service. As soon as I see my account go back to 0, I’m moving to Azure.

  @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!!
