Why does the AWS dashboard show all green when that is most definitely not the case?

I strongly doubt that's the case, at PagerDuty we're seeing ~100x the regular traffic. I think it's been having issues for at least 15 minutes.

The red check marks are in VA and can't be displayed.

If only they did multi-AZ hosting like they keep telling us to do when there's outages :)

Even now that it is updated it has yellow triangles for "performance issues" instead of red circle for service disruption. Seems like they are in denial.

This was the disappointing thing for me as well. Our connectivity died around 8PM EST-ish, and I immediately went to status.aws and it said everything was normal. I then proceeded to waste half my night looking at our internal infrastructure trusting that page was accurate.

I've learned my lesson.

Power went out = service disruption.

It's underhanded to call it a "performance issue," if not an outright lie, albeit a small one.
