The info is spreading across the news websites: For approximatively two hours, many online services or websites are suffering of an Amazon Web Services outage.  Some affected services:

  • Signal
  • Slack
  • Zoom

These may affect corporate communications. Some banks seem also affected. I did not mention all the games, entertainment and other services that are less business critical…

I’ll update this diary with fresh news if needed.
