June 15 outage, latest announcement Wrote:Yuku Team-- Bob
posted this on Jun 15 11:08 am
Last night, for approximately 8-10 hours, the Yuku network was unexpectedly off-line due to a failure of Amazon Web Services that affected not only Yuku, but many popular web sites like Quora, Pinterest, Dropbox and Heroku. We apologize for this outage, and wanted to assure the community that we had our staff working overnight to bring the Yuku network back online as quickly as possible. According to Amazon, most of the connectivity has been restored, but the impact of the outage on the Yuku network is still being resolved by our engineers. We will provide you with additional updates as they become available and we appreciate your patience as we work to fully restore our network.
