Amazon Web Services experienced technical problems that affected approximately half of the Internet, which is completely dependent on the cloud services of this company.

Amazon is already aware of the issue affecting DynamoDB endpoints in the US-EAST-1 region and is working to fix it, but has not announced an exact resolution time yet.

Services affected by AWS outages include ChatGPT, Perplexity, Snapchat, Roblox, Google, Steam, Epic Games Store, Atlassian, Facebook, Telegram, X (Twitter), and others. Users are also reporting issues with Signal and a number of other platforms.
