I feel this in my midnight cursing and investigation.
I gotta get HAss going so I can still use my lights when the clowd breaks.

I suspect the big problem is that IAM is affected and it is not decentralized, which is causing other systems worldwide (even outside of AWS’ us-east-1 location) which rely on IAM in us-east-1 to also fail. I’m having trouble even logging into the AWS console to check on my European servers.
Sounds reasonable, the first errors I encountered were all 403.
Butbutbut AWS reliability and many regions and zones means this can’t happen! ;-)
Aws us-east-1 seems to have problem, and we can now see what is hosted there.
The most used region in AWS, so not surprising
Also the region the PoC their new tech, so its known to be unreliable.

Ah, you mean just now. It’s not night everywhere!
Assimilate to the one true time zone. Resistance is futile.
Oh you mean UTC?
Ach. Fine.
Outage is ending.
Oct 20 2:27 AM PDT We are seeing significant signs of recovery. Most requests should now be succeeding. We continue to work through a backlog of queued requests. We will continue to provide additional information.
I’ve just been on Reddit and it’s having some serious issues right now.
Reddit has had issues for years, that’s why so many of us are here.
Oh, you meant the aws thing.
Using the old interface seems to yield better results there. It appears to be their newer API model that’s suffering.
Is Signal down for anyone else?
Reddit seems to be having issues as well. hah
Yup, Signal is down. The one centralized service I’m still rooting for I guess. Disappointed they’re running on AWS.
Is Signal down for anyone else?
Yeah same no signal here on signal.
Yea. It‘s affected, too.
Yup, it’s maybe working again now. At least I got a message through just then.
I got the test messages I exchanged with a friend earlier, but new messages are still stuck
US government testing their ability to shut down the internet
I assumed Cloudflare tbh
But amazon web service was down as down…
Oh
sad to see my favorite game clash royale down
Wtf is “whatnot”? How is it amongst such well-known stuff (except Instructure, too, I guess)?
Because it was just DNS. That’s how the issue presented and that’s what it was.
someone likely borked IAM.
How long ago did you take the screenshot? Because I am signed in to two of those services right now and they are working 100% fine.

Could it be that web services are divided into regions
A lot of the affected services seem to be partially functional right now. It looks like the AWS network that went offline is one managing real-time analytics data, mostly.
Ahhhhhhh, see. That makes sense!
Could be that your region relies on different servers, could be that only the sign-in is down.
Damn! I was getting pissed at my isp because so much is loading slowly.
I guess this explains the slow loading times for various things.
I was about to restart my whole network while watching something on Stremio. One look at Lemmy was enough to turn that off and pick up a book. Funny how books never buffer 😂
I thought VRChat was down, but I can log in on the Quest stand alone version. For some reason, the PC version would flash the login screen then just sit in that blue void not actually loading anything. :/
What the? My local internet provider uses Amazon Authentication for their webpage?
Perplexity is down as well.

Seems like a fair bet that Amazon Web Services is having some problems?
I really love that the commercial internet runs on like three service providers. Would love to see it crash and burn.

Meredith just tooted that Signal is down due to an AWS outage.

Signal us s AWS, fuck ! That’s deceiving, Where is security if it runs on Besos hardware ?

It was much better with rack space leading the way. We never had outages. Ever.
