Amazon Web Services (AWS) has appeared to have suffered an outage with users of a number of internet services includingRoblox, Fornite, Zoom, Vodafone and Halifax reporting issues.
AWS is the world’s largest cloud computing provider and offers a wide variety of services, including storage, databases, machine learning, and security tools.
In a statement on their website AWS said in a update: "We can confirm significant error rates for requests made to the DynamoDB endpoint in the US-EAST-1 Region. This issue also affects other AWS Services in the US-EAST-1 Region as well. During this time, customers may be unable to create or update Support Cases. Engineers were immediately engaged and are actively working on both mitigating the issue, and fully understanding the root cause.
As of 11.55am (U.K. time) many websites are beginning to appear to be back online and the issue seems to be resolved.
