So far, Facebook has not fully confirmed what caused the outages. ThousandEyes, a network intelligence company has issued a statement that the issue appears to be internal rather than a network or internet delivery issue. ThousandEyes VP of product marketing, Alex Henthorn-Iwane has said in quote: “For example, we saw ‘500 internal server errors’ from Facebook. Given the sheer scale and continuous changes that these web scale providers are constantly making to their applications and infrastructure, sometimes things break as a result of these changes, even in the most capable hands.” Nonetheless, the issue seems to have been cleared now as the internet have its fun with the thousands of Facebook down memes that have been made because of it.
