All Storefront services are online. We addressed the issue which was causing domain look-up/name suggestion errors.

Incident Summary (Updated:February 17, 2010: 16:17 ET/21:17 UTC):
The incident was caused by a name resolution timeout error on a database component, part of the name suggestion service. The result was that Storefront domain look-ups were intermittently unavailable. We advised customers at 16:22 ET/21:22 UTC. Our technical teams quickly identified and addressed it. A minor authorized change to our internal DNS service implemented a number of hours prior to the Incident has been determined as being the root cause for those errors. We advised customers that it was resolved at 16:44ET/ 21:44 UTC.
