As per title, as of this time/date I am no longer able to retrieve information from the API from a server in the States as well as a server in Amsterdam. Anyone aware of any issues or planned outages?
Forgot to mention the time supplied being EVE time, ie. GMT

Yeah, it seems it fixed itself around 1 1/2 hours later. EVE Dev channel on IRC confirms this. Ah well, as long as it works again we're all good ;)

Could we get some clarification on this maybe? Pretty hard to develop stuff in your free time if the API has an unknown downtime...
Is this a regular thing? Is it comparable to the daily downtime for EVE itself? What is the reason?
Questions, questions, but no answers :/

It's not regular maintainence- it's not regular whatsoever. I've spotted this happening about 3 times now. I'll knock together a status monitor for the API in a bit perhaps so we can work out when this is happening.
Might not be regular maintenance, but it's coincidental then that it almost always happens around 05:00 GMT. So far, I've noticed around 3 or 4 outages myself.
Again, if you're reading this 2Kay (or any other dev for that matter), any response would be more than welcome.

Well, it was revealed by someone from CCP that the downtime we've been seeing is caused by someone in CCP disabling API access for some time to lessen the load on the database servers, or so I understand. This makes sense, and seeing as it's a 'necessary' thing, we'll learn to live with it.
All it requires is for everyone to maintain decent caches of the data, as well as more and better checking for API availability before actually requesting data from it...
