Cool Graphic of the Facebook Outage

Arbor Networks posted this great graphic showing the giant chunk of silence that was caused by a bad config file at Facebook.

We use ATLAS data to graph Facebook (AS32934) traffic with 80 ISPs around the world between 5pm September 22 and 5pm EDT today. You can see Facebook traffic plummet around 1:30pm and return shortly after 4pm. From a quick glance at the data, the outage appears to be global (impacting all of the 80 ISPs).

Shows that this network gets upwards of 70 GB per second of traffic. That’s a lot of status updates about lunch and Farmville invitations.
