Facebook Inc Server Goes Down Once Again



The social media giant faced a server breakdown on Monday which was criticized by analysts all over the world.

Facebook Inc. was recently seen facing one of the many other server breakdowns that it has had in the past few months, which has also made the analysts wonder as to what the tech giant is really doing with its security system. These breakdowns, occasionally, are considered as not a very big deal but the fact that the downgrade that was seen on Monday was the tech giant’s third in a period of one month, and was not taken quite that well by the industry pundits. Analysts have been discussing how the frequency of these events has increased over the period and it looks like the social media giant could be messing up with its system that has left the investors confused. Facebook business has been working fine on the stock index for the past four weeks but there have been problems with some technicalities, which have brought the firm under the critical gaze of the analysts. All the recent events took place in the month of September only and all the issues that were raised came to be revolving around the same problem of users failing to log into their Facebook accounts due to the server being down. When the users tried to log in, they were shown a page with a message saying ‘service unavailable’ which showed that site was down. Following these server breakdowns, analysts who were not informed of the core cause of the issue concluded that the social media platform might be going through some major changes due to which the breakdowns took place. This could be a drawback on the company’s part, which was causing the networking site to be unbelievably slow for users around the world. Even though Facebook software team did not give in any details as to why the break down took place, a spokesperson from the site was seen discussing with the press about how the media site experienced the massive issue as it was going through some configuration problem. On the other hand, representatives apologized to the users from the networking giant in which the firm was also seen to assure the users about how the problems that have been occurring so frequently will be seen to, with the aim of putting an end to all the issues in the future. The decline in service caused frustration among people and #facebookdown hashtags circulated over the social media. Consequently, Facebook faced a loss in revenues.
