GitHub Back Online After Service Outage

Posted by timothy on from the you-were-asleep-face-it dept.

The Next Web reports that GitHub — home to many open source projects — suffered (and quickly recovered from) a service outage this morning, starting around 14:00 UTC. Other than that the problem "appears to have been caused by its database server," the cause isn't clear.

    But describing 14:00 as morning is a bit too much.

    If the meteors go on strike I think we'd have known about it.

    Do what Starbucks does. Use portals to other dimensions. Why do you think they're all over the place?

    I thought that was just to avoid tax.
