Flickr Down But Not Out
I'm sure everyone noticed that Flickr was down this morning, the early risers at least. Although the site was down, the photos you have posted to your site should have continued to be served. The site was brought back online slowly to prevent data loss.
Flickr announced at around 7:30 this morning "Hello- Your stats should be back up for you now; we had that disabled for a short while. To let you know, there was a power issue in a datacenter that caused an outage, and apologize for that. Rest assured, no data was lost (however some stats are not correct).
Our operations engineers are all working to make sure all systems are clear. Again, thanks a lot for your patience, and you can visit out help topic for any feedback or questions."
It looks like everything is almost back to normal, Flickr has assured us that no content was lost. They also apologized for the outage and cautioned us that some of the stat counts may be off a bit.
