My order changed to the damn invisibility paint again! I know Elon wants to be on the cutting edge, but it's going to make finding it in a parking lot really hard.

Anyone else bouncing back and forth between here and their Tesla account page to see if it’s back up yet or is it just me?
Ordered mine on 3/5, ready To take delivery and uploaded insurance (no VIN needed) on 3/26, RN11460xxxxxOrdered 3/17 RN11466 (still no VIN)
And it's not back up yet!LoL - at least one of us is. I find it remarkable the Tesla can build these cars but can't build a reliable website. I mean, it really sucks!
You can probably find your VIN in the source code of your status page and with a VIN, and SA can tell you exactly where your car is.Ordered in January, but took it off hold APR 6th. RN1143XXXXX. I’ve had “estimated delivery: - “ for about 2 weeks now.

Mine shows up again if I sign in but that’s all there is. System hangs If I click manage.
This has been the longest down time that I can recall.. I hope that this is a good sign but I don't want to get my hopes too high...And it's not back up yet!
I'd concur it's a problem to the backend, either middleware between ERP or directly to ERP. We used to do this to the mainframes (Aerospace, big Blue and Fujitsu still rule there along with Un*x big boxes) but I'd expect Tesla to be on something more modern than that lol.Did a little digging to figure out where the tesla site is running. Turns out it seems to be hosted on a front end IP address that is owned directly by them. The ASN for the IP that tesla.com resolves to matches tesla as well so this is advertised by them direct to the internet. It does traceroute through akamai, so there's some CDN in front of it for volumetric protection or WAF, but it really seems based on a dig/traceroute/whois/ASN lookup that this site is hosted from their premises, not in a cloud. It could be proxying traffic via load balancers/api gateways from web services in a cloud, but this could explain capacity issues, etc, like a bunch of data center appliances that are melting (WAFs/firewalls that are maxed out on flows/etc), or capacity in a blade chassis/hw cluster that normally can handle it. It wouldn't surprise me either if they were querying an ERP that manages the assembly line for the status of each order, and that ERP has an API query limit that is exhausted by all of us refreshing all day long. I'd put money on the fact that at least some of the outages are failed code pushes trying to figure out how to do a cache layer on that API, or something to offload that traffic. Doubt it's the same crew designing the car facing stuff. Although, I recall a reddit thread from a few years ago that talked about some basement duct tape/bubblegum infra that used to run things. I've seen other stuff saying they've moved to Kubernetes, etc for the car facing apps, but this account site could be a lot of tech debt that is now coming due for payment.
**I'm a cloud nerd who doesn't want to write documents for work right now, so I did this instead. Not making excuses for them (at least just put up a page that throttles requests/static caches/something), just adding to the rampant speculation here for entertainment value. YMMV, IANAL, consult a doctor if it lasts more than four hours.**
I hear you. I scheduled my vacation around delivery even giving a couple extra weeks just in case…This has been the longest down time that I can recall.. I hope that this is a good sign but I don't want to get my hopes too high...
They don’t use an ERP. They use their own built-in-house platform developed by their former CTO. It’s called WARP. I think.Did a little digging to figure out where the tesla site is running.

I haven't even requested any vacation days so far this year.. Still got 23 days plus 1 floating holiday to use plus 1 COVID day (extra vacation day given to us because of the Pandemic)..I hear you. I scheduled my vacation around delivery even giving a couple extra weeks just in case…
