I always wonder about the after action in a situation like this. Obviously, it makes Apple look bad but it isn't like they are going to flog the responsible team (and I mean responsible in the sense that various teams are in charge of the components of the overall system: the os service that issues the request, the website responding to the request, etc.)

I'm sure some devops folks were getting screamed at while running around with their hair on fire, but what's the cause and response. Hopefully they'll issue a public after action report that isn't jammed with marketing talk like "we were unfortunately caught by surprise and due to the unprecedented massive interest in the latest macOS with its great features for users and developers, blah blah".
