Users
Scholaric.com is currently down.
I've been tracking an ongoing issue with my hosting provider, Heroku - which you can see status at http://status.heroku.com
This morning, Scholaric was working properly, but I was unable to use my tools. This was identified as network connectivity issues, effecting tools.
The underlying cause has now been identified as an Amazon Web Service outage - which you can see on http://status.aws.amazon.com/?a
This Amazon Outage extends beyond Heroku, and other services, like Squarespace are having problems today also.
I sincerely apologize for this outage, but I continue to be confident in Heroku, the hosting provider for Scholaric, and Amazon Web Services.
As is my policy, all users will get their next payment date moved back due to this outage, and all free trials will be extended.
I will post again when the service is back up.
