    Have you tried turning it off and then on again?

    Oh you have

    You can click on any of the instances and then the service that is down to read the updates. It’s not 100% clear but some sort of issue with a “legacy login service”. The latest updates say a fix is rolling out.

    Haven't they got some kind of new fancy ai interface they can use to fix it?

    That status page is the most salesforce thing ever.

    Scroll down. >_<

      Wow, it's almost as long as the Every UUID V4 or Every Floating Point Number pages.

      I see tabs with a spinner loading infinitely, which is indeed very salesforce like
    • troupo 13 minutes ago
      It lists all instances, you can drill down into each one of them, see which services are affected, and each affected service pops up the incident timeline?

      Isn't it actually amazing, and not "the most salesforce thing ever"?

    • chrisjj 28 minutes ago
      Yup. No mention of outage. Even drilling down gets nothing more than "Service Disruption".
    • santoshalper 1 hour ago
      At least they're consistent about UX. My only complaint is that it needs more tabs.

    This is certainly a unique status page.

    You better bet someone started their agents with a prompt "Make a salesforce clone but with 100% uptime"

    My gut instinct is that this is about when all of their on prem servers were EOL and their /public cloud solution was required. This must have had something to do with that

      My gut instinct is that this is about Dreamforce with the rickshaws and whatnot

    Perfect timing with Dreamforce this week.

    Sam speaks at Salesforce.

    Salesforce goes down.

    No causation here...move on.

    And nothing of value was lost. God, I hate everything about Salesforce. Sometimes I have to integrate against their services, and it is always a pain, not to mention what the core project actually is: optimization of marketing and spam.

    Wow, the intern must have tripped over a very big power cable this time

    Could it be people doing Claude/GPT automations and they just can't handle it?

    It’s akways DNS or login

    Never before in the history of global compute outages was so little lost by so many down servers, whose purpose was known to so few.

    Was it DNS? Any guesses? :)

    Remind me please, what are folks currently paying per seat for this glorified CRUD app?

      If I had been just out of Uni I would think this is edgy

      Now I'm just glad I'm not responsible for this fire

  • jackdecker 40 minutes ago
    Ah yes. Exactly what a status page should look like: an endless list of random ID’s that don’t mean anything and no information whatsoever

    At least salesforce is consistent with their design language

    • chasd00 38 minutes ago
      > random ID’s that don’t mean anything and no information whatsoever

      If you use salesforce you know what all of that stuff means. Just click on one, it’s not rocket surgery.

      • jackdecker 32 minutes ago
        Was really just poking fun at them - AWS’s status page isn’t much better
    • mulmen 11 minutes ago
      It loads very fast for me.

      It has a search that works well.

      When you click on an instance it shows what service is down and has a log of updates that come in roughly every 30 minutes.

      The instance status URL is predictable so runbooks could already be prepared with deep links.

      It even has a text box for email updates.

      What more do you want exactly?

      Looks like a region list to me, maybe just with a lot of regions

    At least now we can figure out what Salesforce does.
    • sunrunner 35 minutes ago
      "And in tonight's news, the worldwide CRM solution Salesforce had a global outage affecting one hundred percent of its customer base. We interviewed users of the service to find out the scope of the impact. Everyone agreed that they were impacted, but strangely, nobody could describe _in what way_ they were affected."
