[00:00] Ô Cristiano, tô tentando entrar na plataforma pra fazer a operação, mas simplesmente nada acontece. A tela tá travada, fez logout da minha conta, simplesmente nada funciona. O que que tá acontecendo? Boa pergunta, man. Inclusive eu tô com uma dor de cabeça danada por causa disso.
[00:14] Não foi apenas com você. Houve uma pane mundial nos servidores de diversas plataformas. Ô louco, pane mundial? Pensei que era só no meu PC. Não, não, man. A AWS, que é um serviço de web da própria Amazon,
[00:26] teve uma falha em uma das regiões centrais de infraestrutura. E isso daí acabou afetando aplicativos de trade, aplicativos de pagamento, corretoras, tudo que dependem dessa AWS acabou caindo devido a essa pane.
[00:41] Tá, mas e a recomendação? O que eu faço? Eu recomendo tanto a você quanto a todos que estão passando por esse problema esperar que a estabilidade volta, até porque você não vai colocar seu capital em risco. Ah não, beleza, vou seguir sua recomendação sim.
[00:53] Se já é difícil operar com um servidor de 100%, imagina com essa loucura aí. Pode deixar que eu vou esperar isso acabar e voltar ao normal. Sem problemas, qualquer coisa é só entrar em contato. E outra, segue aí o Cristiano Pereira para você ficar atualizado dessas notícias.
