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.

    So, sure, I use github. But... it goes down for a couple of hours and SlashDot panics? This isn't news.
