Quick judgments and strong opinions have unfortunately become part of the community.

Having spent the last 2-3 months working excessively on WordPress development, I would like to say a word about the excellent isolation of code with blocks ("Gutenberg"). As standalone plugins or in combination with Advanced Custom Fields, these allow for perfect, modular websites and development flows (design system), where even the HTML is 100% in your own hands. I can recommend everyone to understand and learn WordPress properly.

– no relation or connection to WordPress.

You could easily setup the same with https://formula8.ai - even more flexible. Just write a React Component Formula.

Re:DATADOG got hacked? on Monday October 03, 2016 @02:26PM (#12629999)
We've never received this email either...
Re:DATADOG got hacked? on Monday October 03, 2016 @02:25PM (#12629991)
100% definitely not! It's a specific IAM key only for the use of DATADOG.

DATADOG got hacked?

We've faced a nightmare weekend and ran into a locked account at AWS. After more than two days they told us that our key at DATADOG got compromised?--Hello XXX,Thank you for reaching out for your patience. I’m reaching out to you in behalf of my colleague David as he is currently off shift. Regarding this issue the EC2 team have new information, and they mentioned that spot instance requests...

They're already too successful, if that customer support doesn't change we're migrating to other providers and diversify our hosting environment.

BTW – we always designed everything that there is no heavy lock-in on any provider, I would recommend that anybody else as well!

Re:Ask HN: Alternatives to AWS? on Monday October 03, 2016 @06:23AM (#12626321)
Yes, this is absolutely not transparent!
Re:Ask HN: Alternatives to AWS? on Monday October 03, 2016 @06:21AM (#12626315)
Sure – like I've written above: we're paying now and don't receive any response either!
Re:Ask HN: Alternatives to AWS? on Monday October 03, 2016 @04:40AM (#12626050)
Good question! AWS is currently getting a mess for us.

We're facing an auto scaling spot instance bug (it's definitely one) and we're trying since 3 days to contact anybody from them to get our business back on to the road!

We're now forced to sign-up for a paid support plan. Nevertheless, they already breached the SLA of 12 hours, it's really frustrating...

First thought after 5 years of paying them a lot of money to migrate somewhere else (e.g. Google).

It's always ciritcal if you lose your customer contact by implementing strange support barriers to earn 3$ more.

A not anymore happy AWS customer

Re:Amazon Elasticsearch Service on Thursday October 01, 2015 @04:42PM (#10314531)
Amazon has more possiblities to run a really huge cluster and balance the different load peaks of the search nodes. The whole business model of AWS is based on this... but you're right as well, price isn't everything and comfort worth money. And yes, I love RDS as well, especially Aurora... it's a great deal!
Re:Amazon Elasticsearch Service on Thursday October 01, 2015 @04:32PM (#10314465)
This new aws service offer is really boring, I don't see a real advantage migrating to it anytime soon.

What will be the expectation here:

- Autoscaling functionalities out of the box

- Better speed than on regular EC2 instances (I/O, Network)

- More visiblity, better monitoring out of the box (e.g. Marvel)

- Lower pricing than running on plain EC2

Still a long way to go here...
