AWS says cloud service has recovered after widespread outage
"AWS has fixed an underlying problem with a regional gateway on the US East Coast that caused the disruption, the company said on its health dashboard just over three hours after its first update on the issue. Some users might see slower responses or increased error rates during the recovery, it said. User complaints began spiking just after 7:30 a.m. London time, according to data from Downdetector."
"Companies that had been impacted by the AWS issue largely said that their services had recovered as well. Financial platform Robinhood said that services had recovered while Coinbase said it was monitoring results of the fix. Artificial intelligence firm Perplexity and British tax authority HMRC also said that the outage, which disrupted their websites, was resolved. User complaints for Amazon's own services, including Alexa and the Ring home security system, also declined, according to Downdetector's stats."
Amazon Web Services experienced a widespread disruption that degraded services for government agencies, AI companies and financial platforms. AWS fixed an underlying problem with a regional gateway on the US East Coast and warned that some users might see slower responses or increased error rates during recovery. User complaints surged just after 7:30 a.m. London time and then declined as services came back. Impacted companies reported restorations, with Robinhood confirming recovery and Coinbase monitoring results. Perplexity and HMRC said disrupted websites were resolved. AWS previously suffered a major December 2021 outage caused by an automated program that triggered network surges.
