Ask HN: Is Fastly down?

5 pointsjpetrucc7y ago7 comments

It appears that many sites are having issues currently:

https://rubygems.org/ https://reddit.com/

Also unable to run bundle installs or gem installs, potentially related?

That doesn't seem to have anything to do with Cloudflare. Cloudflare isn't handling traffic for those sites. They both appear to be handled by Fastly. Also we are not down.

(Title was "Is Cloudflare down?" which is why I replied).

Sorry for assuming! My first thought was a CDN or caching layer, and Cloudflare is the first that comes to mind. I should've investigated a bit more

No worries. Perhaps Fastly's having a bad day in your area. It happens. #hugops

FWIW I can get to reddit.com and rubygems.org without any trouble for London.

Yesterday there was problem resolving cloudflare hosts when you used google DNS. Related?

Interesting, I was on Google's DNS. I've since switched and things appear to be working again!

Thanks for the link!

Also, if you hard reload Slack (ctrl-shift-r) the icons on the far left don't load.
