It didn’t mess with a single one of my 50 cameras
BUT, it did make my sensors and one lightstrip go offline. Other people reported problems with more cameras though. Not sure why none of mine were affected though.
Agreed, I really don’t understand how this is so prevalent. There should be multiple redundancy and failover so that if a primary server or service encounters issues, the system automatically runs everything seamlessly on the secondary one to ensure continuous operation. I am just confused why companies (including Wyze) either aren’t doing it or why it keeps not working that way. If needed, put the primary on AWS and a secondary on another service or something that can handle the traffic on a temporary basis while you bring the primary back to normal behavior and can switch back. Then you aren’t dependent on a single service provider like AWS. I’m sure a lot of it has to do with cost considerations…but there has to be a better balance because reliability concerns can definitely affect your income too (ie: people will start to go somewhere else if it happens too frequently).
