Docker Hub Registry is down

    Regular reminder that Docker Hub is not really an enterprise registry with an SLA. You should use pretty much anything else for serious applications that rely on pulling images in the hot path (such as auto-scaling up).

    It seems like dockerhub requires a lot of bandwidth...lots of people being able to pull gigabytes worth of images everyday. Does anyone know anything behind the economics behind this? How can they offer it for free?

    What's the best way around this kind of outage?

    If we only had listened our sysadmin...

    So my CI environment requires access to other docker images, all hosted on Docker Hub.

    Seems like the tech giants should load balance these images for the good of the Internet to provide some decent redundancy and for my sanity at 11.30pm.

    This has broken fresh containerized deploys on Heroku, which is surprising since they run their own registry. They should be proxying Hub, it'd save them a ton of bandwidth.

    What a coincidence, the same minute all my lightsail instances got unresponsive and then 20 minutes stuck on "stopping".

    Launched a new one.. docker pull bam error. Customer unsatisfied.
