This is what happens when a status page becomes a marketing tool that you can use in a powerpoint presentation in order to assess “reliability” when choosing a vendor instead of something that you can actually rely on for monitoring purposes.
Good at making weirdo awesome internal tools that can scale incredibly and solve problems like BigTable/Kubernetes but then suck at delivering it as a service to those outside of Google.
This was posted half an hour ago and the services are already up. Why do people keep posting all these "<service> is down"? We know the Internet works on best-effort, so these posts are completely worthless unless there's something major going on.
Hello folks, this is @ahmetb from Google. Our teams are currently investigating and hope to have it resolved soon. From what I can tell, this appears to be a regional network issue for customers around Bulgaria (and I've seen Turkey reported online, as well). It seems to have been mitigated, if you're still hitting this outage, it would help mentioning where you're connecting from.

Amazon/Microsoft figured it out already.
Edit: This is trying to access it from Bulgaria, I have no issues from my servers in Germany.
