Someone should come up with a way to preemptively give all potential peers at a given IX a heads-up as to maintenance events like that, so that all of the other participants didn’t have to individually troubleshoot the failure condition, work out amongst themselves what was going on, and possibly multiple of them reach out to inquire.

 

I think something like that would really be popular.

(Thanks for passing that along, Ryan!)

Hi Shawn –

                We have been seeing lots of the same over the past week or two.  Bounces every minute for hours until we shut down our sessions.  It took a few emails to Amazon to get a response – but I did receive the following back from them just the other day –

 

 

Dear partner,

 

Thank you for your inquiry. We're currently in the process of a significant infrastructure upgrade, which involves relocating this circuit to our new fabric. Our team has initiated the turndown process, which will be followed by a cable migration.

 

While we don't have a specific ETA for the completion of this work, please be assured that our team is working diligently to restore capacity as quickly as possible.

 

No action is required from your end at this time. We will keep you informed of any significant developments or if any action becomes necessary.

 

We understand the inconvenience this may cause and sincerely appreciate your patience during this important upgrade process. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out.

 

Regards,

Has anyone else’s Amazon peering been bouncing a lot lately? They are bouncing right now for us and have sporadic periods over the last week. Are any of you seeing the same? Anyone know anything about it?

 

Thanks,
