Comment on Ask HN: Why does Github go down so often?

Comments

I don't think they actually have a higher failure rate than other large scale web applications. They are just very open about their failures and data. http://status.github.com/ reports an uptime of 99.8% for the month. Not _fantastic_ but very very good.

perhaps it just seems like it is down more because as developers we spend a lot of time using github's services
