Thread regarding Target Corp. layoffs

Does it mean anything significant that both Target.com and Target Mobile went down at the same time?

If it were Target.com alone, I would expect something deep in the system broke.

But if it's Target.com and Mobile, then might the flaw have something to do with a failure in the caching architecture?

Or to restate this, any idea what caused this global outage in the online guest experience?

( I ask for a friend ;-) )

Ok, as long as they (1urr) shops online from the basement lare. I guess I could accept them shopping at target. I would prefer they are not near people.

1fav - was that the goal to prevent 1urr from shopping at Target yesterday? I think your Ruby code has a flaw.

Can we stay on point here. Some of the best content we've seen on this site in a long while and then BAM. Some more wacked out nonsense.... (Star Wars/emperor no close etc) I get it, you think your witty and want a back slap, but drop this nonsense thank you!

Good, good, I can feel your anger - Emperor Palpatine

But at least he had clothes.

I think it means they both suck, Amazon is significant though.

OP - this isn't a web support website. Call the CSC! They have Chef scripts now and will automate all of this and recover the things and save Christmas!

Very much hand picked? Please. You make it sound like the decision was made on intelligence. It was a total cluster in TTS all morning and no one had a clue. Those "intermittent" users experiencing the issue have a lot to say, check Twitter, check anywhere. I left there today and the hand picked nonsense wasn't that much further along than at 10 am. Liar

Clark, did you check to make sure the electricity is turned on to the outlet and we have power. I suggest that be checked before evaluating each bulb.

They both use the same e-commerce backend. They will shut down all (or a select few) to help fix the problem and/or help others continue running smoothly.

Past the first hour, what is "down" is very much hand-picked.
