Heroku was/is down. Apparently they missed the memo where a service provider like them is supposed to handle things like this for us and not keep all their eggs in one basket.

What cloud provider of PaaS uses a single company for their DNS? Pitiful.

I don't think Heroku has actually gone down.

We are on Heroku and have had some of our customers have access issues, but only a few.

They use DynDNS to resolve all their internal services to AWS, so yes they were/are.

None of the toolbelt commands were working for us.

Probably because GitHub was down? I could not attach buildpacks, but could change configs.
