  • awsmag Awsmag (@awsmag) reported

    Data Encryption: Data stored in the Amazon S3 can be encrypted using Amazon KMS keys. Once a key is generated, the server-side encryption will make sure only you can access the objects if you own the key which is utilised in encrypting them.

  • beriadan77 Alejandro Luna (@beriadan77) reported

    We've been having critical issues with GameLift in the past days and @AWSSupport 's less than 12hs developer support has been silent for 4 days.

  • mdfaheem228 Faheem M (@mdfaheem228) reported

    @AWSSupport I have been sensing them emails and the requested documents since 6 months and those guys never respond and ask the same document with a generic email. No issue should take more than 6 months to resolve

  • gmantri Gaurav Mantri (@gmantri) reported

    I'm surprised that @awscloud and @googlecloud still does not support server-side copying objects from external sources! @Azure has this feature for many (almost 9) years. Just wondering if one were to copy data in these cloud platforms, how can they go about doing it?

  • cjohnstonau Chris Johnston (@cjohnstonau) reported

    @awscloud Can I just point out how god awful @PearsonVUE is of a company. I am being forced to miss an exam because they're unable to issue a refund or rechedule my exam. Worst customer service I have experienced. It has put me off wanting to do any AWS exams.

  • woundedkarma A fox in space (@woundedkarma) reported

    @azure @awscloud Hey, I don't suppose anyone could get these guys at @onesimplewish some help? Reddit and Twitter noticed they're doing good work and suddenly they're running just a bit slow.

  • jasonlegate Jason (@jasonlegate) reported

    @AWSSupport Looks like there are issues again with us-east-2?

  • mehmetra Mehmet Alkanlar (@mehmetra) reported

    @AWSSupport @awscloud impossible to login to AWS console via root user login page in the last 20 mins. Captcha box doesn't accept valid entries (tried 8+ times), and "Having trouble or sight impaired?" link 404s.

  • Adrian_Mcg7 Adrian McGuinness (@Adrian_Mcg7) reported

    @AWSSupport I’ve put a technical support ticket on AWS as a website of mine is down. Have not had a single response to my ticket. Would have expected a quicker response based on ‘system impaired’ severity. Not happy with the slowness of response.

  • tricklynch Patrick Lynch (@tricklynch) reported

    @QuinnyPig @F1 @awscloud Couldn't they have a billing alarm set that triggers aws-nuke? If they delete everything, they are no longer using anything, so "pay only for what you use" would go down to $0

  • jmassengale John Massengale AIA CNU 🚶🏼‍♂️🚶🏼‍♂️🚶🏼‍♂️ (@jmassengale) reported

    @AWSSupport -- Even with the "Friendly Streaming" app, Prime Video won't open. Prime Video opened in Firefox, but videos wouldn't play. How do I fix this?

  • LilCorey315 Corey Thomas (@LilCorey315) reported

    @awscloud @amazon having some horrible account issues , and the customer service over these events are just unbelievable!!

  • Justify108 Justify (@Justify108) reported

    Hi @awscloud where i have to complain? I spend 8 hours to submit AWS test but their browser is not working. I called 3 times to support for help for at least just submit. they simply transferred calls and hold for hours.

  • poiThePoi Look up "Knuffelberen" (@poiThePoi) reported

    @SFoskett @QuinnyPig @awscloud Also, the list of largest customers had little to do with # of bugs you hit, but largest single deployments and also 3 randoes who we courted with expensive chocolates. Because if they didn't hit our problems, someone else would.

  • michaelgat Michael Gat (@michaelgat) reported

    @QuinnyPig @F1 @awscloud It's always exciting when an F1 car experiences a "thermal event." It doesn't take down half the internet, but it is exciting.

  • IcharussGrym Icharuss (@IcharussGrym) reported

    @QuinnyPig @awscloud @github Have been through this scenario before, GitHub doesn’t even have proper logging or alerting on the backend to prevent issues from escalations for this scenario the only helpful advice (after paying $ for escalated support case) was “next time if your on enterprise you can log it

  • PaulDJohnston Paul Johnston - how exhausted can one be? (@PaulDJohnston) reported

    @QuinnyPig @awscloud @AWSSupport It would be interesting to see what they tried if all the usual channels (as per the policy + ECS, EKS etc) were shut down. I wonder if there are some hacks they've come up with e.g. cloud9 springs to mind. Policy needs to give *some access* though.

  • TheManAbides Erik What Does Incompetent Mean Bigglestone (@TheManAbides) reported

    @AWSSupport I sent you a DM and also called your company yesterday. The advice I received in response was neither helpful nor satisfactory. My public tweet about the issue was the next step. But sure, I'll send you another message.

  • omniedgeio OmniEdge Inc (@omniedgeio) reported

    OmnEdge Service Notice: We had received an email from @awscloud that the EC2 for HK server has detected degradation of the underlying hardware hosting your Amazon EC2 instance. The server will be replaced today from 10: 30 AM to 10: 40 AM(HongKong Time GMT +8).

  • ciannait Heather Has No Idea What They're Doing (@ciannait) reported

    @QuinnyPig @F1 @awscloud All they need are some broken ASGs and a runaway Lambda and poof

  • mehmetra Mehmet Alkanlar (@mehmetra) reported

    @AWSSupport impossible to login to AWS console via root user login page right now in the last 20 mins. Captcha box doesn't accept valid entries (tried 8+ times), and "Having trouble or sight impaired?" link 404s.

  • Robiedigital Robius Digititus (@Robiedigital) reported

    @awscloud if I buy something on Amazon, and it arrives but it is broken, what do I do?

  • DrRobertKelm Robert Kelm (@DrRobertKelm) reported from Tinley Park, Illinois

    Former employer: “Ahhh! All our @awscloud things are down!” Me: “1: What does that have to do with me? 2, Question: Did the CFO decide on her own again that the company didn’t need the AWS products anymore? AWS WILL shut down for non-payment. Have fun. (End call).”

  • ExerFitWellness exerFIT Wellness (@ExerFitWellness) reported

    @awscloud Our website has been down for a day - it states that there is an error establishing a database connection. Additionally, there is a problem with database authentication as well. We need your help at the earliest as we aren't getting any support via the AWS website team

  • iamanuj12 Anuj (@iamanuj12) reported

    @awscloud @AWSCloudIndia @AWS_Edu There are some misunderstanding/issues with my AWS SAA certification. To get this resolved I raised multiple service request and dropped several emails but I am not receiving any proper response.This is bad experience. Please help me on this.

  • jorge882 George Burns III (@jorge882) reported

    @AWSSupport Hmmm..... Is the #AWS Partner Network training portal not working? Made me reset my password, won't accept any of the Security Codes that it sends me, etc. Trying to schedule my SAA-Pro exam!

  • manchuck I've been shot! MANCHUCK (@manchuck) reported

    Everytime the lighting gets a power play, I'm going to scale down my @awscloud instances and scale up when the @NYIslanders get one

    @awscloud Why is it so laggy and slow?
