WhatsApp is down, after breaking the record for messages

WhatsApp she still says of herself that it is an alternative to SMS, but the truth is that it is already much more than that, it is the means of communication for millions of people around the world, and now it has fallen, so no one can use said application. This is the second fall in a very short time, and after breaking the daily record for messages.

Nine hours ago I published a new message on Twitter the messaging application saying that they had broken a new daily record, 20 billion messages sent, and 44 billion messages received, a total of 64 billion messages in just 24 hours, the most they have reached in the application . However, it seems that the application servers have not been able to handle this workload, or perhaps it is something else of the thousands and thousands of reasons that could have caused this crash.

Be that as it may, it is the second drop since Facebook announced the purchase of the application, and that means that it has already had two drops in a very short time. And it is not the best time to suffer two falls, of course. Now that WhatsApp is part of Facebook, we are all waiting to find out what the future holds for this application. Will it get better, will it get worse? Two drops in a short time since Facebook officially published the acquisition of WhatsApp are not good signs, it must be said. However, it should not be given more importance than it is. WhatsApp is an online service, which depends on high-level servers. There could have been many things that have caused this crash, and it is most likely that in a very short time the application will work normally again and the service will be restored.
