Monitoring
We have caught up with our backlog of check-ins and are processing any new ones as they come in. Our alerting system has stabilized though there are current risks with our split between hosting providers. We are actively monitoring the system to ensure alerting continue to be stable.

Identified
We are processing check-ins again and working through the backlog. We have moved processing to a new provider to get around the current issues with Amazon AWS. The dashboard (https://deadmanssnitch.com) and API are currently offline to due issues at our hosting provider. We are working to stabilize the system.

Investigating
Check-in processing has stopped again and we are investigating. Our hosting provider is having serious issues this morning that has limited our ability to effectively address the situation.

We are currently processing a backlog of check-ins and investigating if the delays have caused any false alerts.
