Amazon's cloud service AWS sees widespread outage affecting services
(Reuters) - Amazon.com Inc's widely used cloud service, Amazon Web
Services (AWS), is experiencing a large-scale outage, the
company said on Wednesday, affecting users ranging from websites to software
providers.
It has also affected the ability to post updates to its service
health dashboard, the company said.
"Kinesis has been experiencing increased error rates this
morning in our US-East-1 Region that's impacted some other AWS services. We are
working toward resolution," an AWS spokesperson said in a statement.
Amazon Kinesis, a part of its cloud offerings, collects, processes
and analyzes real-time data and offers insights.
Video-streaming device maker Roku Inc, Adobe's Spark platform, video-hosting
website Flickr and the Baltimore Sun newspaper were among those hit by the
outage, according to their recent posts on Twitter.
