Site Service Restored - georgia_tech_swagger - 07-06-2015 03:24 PM

Sorry for the slowness today. There was a DDOS attack originating out of Poland and Russia, and using Amazon EC2 cloud services as well.

I wasn't until around 4 PM ET I checked the site to mitigate the issue. I think this is the first time something happened where my phone didn't ring off the hook in < 5 minutes. Maybe I will have to install non-human monitoring after all!

Carry on being unproductive as usual.

This actually made me laugh because when you think about it, you make money with a site that makes people less productive at work.

I'd argue they are still more productive getting their fix in one big concentrated dose than scouring slowly all over the internet.
