As promised, AWS is keeping customers up to date with its investigation into the outages. From its recent statement, it appears there has been progress as customers are encouraged to try accessing the services disrupted earlier again.

Here is the full statement:

“We have applied initial mitigations and we are observing early signs of recovery for some impacted AWS Services.

“During this time, requests may continue to fail as we work toward full resolution. We recommend customers retry failed requests. While requests begin succeeding, there may be additional latency and some services will have a backlog of work to work through, which may take additional time to fully process.

“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.

“We continue to observe recovery across most of the affected AWS Services. We can confirm global services and features that rely on US-EAST-1 have also recovered. We continue to work towards full resolution and will provide updates as we have more information to share.”
