What worries me more than the outage is that they didn't introduce any emergency measures like creating a new domain that apps could use to interact with their service.

Wasabi just proved completely unreliable as a storage provider for apps, not because the outage happened but because how it's handled.

I help run a service that relies on Wasabi. This outage is rough. It’d be nice to have a workaround while their domain is resolving. As artwis mentioned, an alternative domain would suffice.

As it is, we’re scrambling to come up with a workaround.

We changed the hosts file on all our servers. Works so far.
Handy if you know the IP addresses, can you share please? I think after the service being unusable for so long Wasabi should be publishing this as a workaround.
Hopefully this helps you

Sorry, I wasn't directly involved.
Wouldn’t have worked simply in our case. We put together a proxy server and were going to run it on a box with the /etc/hosts hack, then point our CDN at that. Got it all written up in Go, and then Wasabi came back online.
