On Monday Nov 13th, Shopify experienced a major outage, and all the 3,000,000+ stores went down for approx. 40 minutes! 😱 Since Shopify is a true Saas platform (all the stores are sharing the same core code), when something really bad is technically happening, the whole world can see it! 😬 By the way, the former huge Shopify outage was on June 8th 2021, when third-party provider Fastly went down for approx. one hour. Spotify, Twitch, Reddit, Paypal, Stripe, Github,... were also down at that time. No significant outage in 2022. No significant outage in 2020. Overall, in the last four years, 40 + 60 MINUTES of big outage. Including some minor minute-long glitches, my personal estimate is that Shopify has a 99.991% average uptime since January 1st 2020. Not too bad folks! 👏 And the best part of it is that when a problem is happening, you (merchants, agencies, system integrators) have nothing to do, Shopify tech team will fix it! Days, nights, weekends... it's their job! You can stay calm and relax! 😎 #Shopify #Uptime #Outage

Honestly the “old days” of Shopify this was so much more common and as a theme developer or app developer this would be a forced break from work. Sometimes I’d go fishing, or take the day off.. but Shopify would have it fixed in 15min and I’d just be considered MIA for the day. Shopify needs to bring back more outages 😅🤣

Wow, that's quite a glitch! It's impressive to see how Shopify efficiently handles these outages and gets things back on track. With an average uptime of 99.991% since 2020, it's clear that they take their job seriously and prioritize their users' peace of mind. Kudos to the Shopify
