Thousands of users are experiencing an outage of Amazon Web Services (AWS), the cloud-based service provided by Amazon.
According to the outage tracking website Down detector, over 10,000 users have reported issues with accessing the service. The exact number of affected users is unknown but appears to be significant. The majority of users have encountered problems with the AWS website, while others have reported issues with the AWS console and server connection errors.
AWS has acknowledged the downtime on its dashboard and stated that the increased error rates and latencies are due to an issue with AWS Lambda. They are actively working to resolve the problem and recommend using region-specific endpoints for accessing the AWS Management Console. Regular updates will be provided to keep users informed.
