  • Amazon has resolved connectivity issues with AWS servers in Oregon and California.
  • The issues appeared to impact Netflix, Twitch, Slack, and other sites that use AWS.
  • Amazon's cloud services experienced a similar outage just last week. 

Amazon says it has resolved connectivity issues for Amazon Web Services servers located in Oregon and California.

Amazon said it resolved issues it identified in the US-WEST-1 Region in Northern California as of 8 a.m. PST, and about 15 minutes later resolved issues in Oregon that were first identified around 7:42 a.m. PST, according to the AWS status dashboard.

Connectivity issues did not appear to impact AWS servers in South America, Europe, Africa, or Asia.

Before they were resolved, the issues appeared to lead to service interruptions to Netflix, Twitch, Slack, and many other sites that use AWS, according to DownDetector

The cloud service experienced a similar outage on December 7 when an AWS outage caused service interruptions to Netflix, Disney+, Tinder, Roku, and Ring home security services. 

Amazon customers complained on social media they could not access home monitoring systems, Ring doorbells, or baby monitors due to the outage.

Amazon told employees the December 7 outage stemmed from a sudden surge of traffic that caused problems to "several network devices within the internal AWS network," according to leaked documents reviewed by Insider.
