Thanks for sharing this info.
I wasn't aware of it. I just think there are dozens of witnesses and running dozens of SQL servers for Hive. If there is only 1 SQL server then it's a very high risk for Hive.

HiveSQL is a service that collects all the infos from the blockchain to make it easily to search and create overviews.

This is a time saver for all the apps who use it. It's expensive to run and afaik it runs very solid.

I don't know what happend with that downtime but think of a replay of all this blockchain data into a structured database - it might take some time.

I heard that the HiveSQL was hacked :(
