This sure makes it easy to know who is hosted by google by going to downdetector.com.



Not exactly hard to do that in the first place

  whois $(dig +short spotify.com A)
  
  NetName:        GOOGLE-CLOUD


That only says spotify.com is using GCP's DNS but not necessarily for hosting?

EDIT: I was wrong, as pointed out by shizcakes.


That's not what that says. It's doing a whois on the hosting IP address, not the DNS service.


Ah you're right! Thanks!


While we are at it, looks like spotify.com is using a mix of NS1 and GCP for DNS.

spotify.com. 172800 IN NS dns1.p07.nsone.net.

spotify.com. 172800 IN NS dns2.p07.nsone.net.

spotify.com. 172800 IN NS dns3.p07.nsone.net.

spotify.com. 172800 IN NS dns4.p07.nsone.net.

spotify.com. 172800 IN NS ns-cloud-a1.googledomains.com.

spotify.com. 172800 IN NS ns-cloud-a2.googledomains.com.

spotify.com. 172800 IN NS ns-cloud-a3.googledomains.com.

spotify.com. 172800 IN NS ns-cloud-a4.googledomains.com.


How can you name your service NS1 but then not use the ns1. subdomain for the first nameserver. SMH


Yeah, per the status page, there's a temporary mitigation rolled out while the team tries to figure out more... so no more 404s but load balancers will be locked down for a while while investigation continues.


Hmm it shows the same spike for instagram and aws as well. Would be funny to me if something on their end depends on GCP. https://downdetector.com/status/aws-amazon-web-services/ https://downdetector.com/status/instagram/


Google Analytics registering as client fails, maybe?


Can confirm. https://spotify.com is now working fine.


Can unconfirm. I can see their website but the app isn't playing nicely at all

Any non-offline playlists/songs just sit there not playing or telling me I'm offline

edit @ 37min: App also seems to be working again now


BigCommerce is likely one of those. Our BigCommerce store was down for several hours today.


Github graphql API seems to be throwing error responses for me still
