@PurelySpace Will do! It's relying on several new releases, so looking like mid-2017 but will def let you know and would love feedback. :)

[ShrinkTheWeb @shrinktheweb]

@Purelyspace Thanks for including us in your well researched, seemingly unbiased screenshot provider round-up! Nicely done article! :) https://t.co/CQysjqchbF

@PurelySpace Also, our new pricing model, coming soon, will address low volume accounts and add many features for lower entry point! Cheers!

Just noticed a 10,000 request per minute DDoS attack for past 30 mins on the service. Not even a 0.00001% blip on the radar, though. LOL. :)

[ShrinkTheWeb @shrinktheweb]

While not a complete outage, STW operation was not optimal but we hope users will support our growth to allow for continued improvements :)

Unfortunately, distributing across multiple S3 zones is not cost feasible, unless we get some larger customers or a LOT more smaller ones.

[ShrinkTheWeb @shrinktheweb]

The S3 trouble was caused by some seriously unfortunate events, but at least we mitigated in part by distributing across multiple zones.

For the curious, here is the detail of AWS S3 trouble that caused spotty service from ShrinkTheWeb on Feb 28th: https://t.co/OOrpPxquLr

[ShrinkTheWeb @shrinktheweb]

and we also utilize multiple datacenters (not just Amazon) for autoscaling capture generators. So, things should be stable from now on. :)

[ShrinkTheWeb @shrinktheweb]

Amazon has reported that all AWS S3 issues are resolved. There is still a problem with autoscaling in east-1a, but we use multiple zones...
