Major outages can happen, though rarely! But why did it take so long to fix it?
"An Amazon Web Services outage hit major sites and apps, disrupting retail sales, social media, financial services and more.
The incident could cost billions in lost sales and cause disruption through supply-chain issues, according to home-delivery service Parcelhero. The AWS infrastructure provides cloud-computing services such as servers and storage to the world’s biggest companies. Among those affected were Facebook, Amazon, Fidelity, Coinbase, Slack, United Airlines, Roblox and WSJ. ... The outage began at 3 a.m. ET. Amazon said it had resolved the problem just after 5 a.m. ET, but the cascade of issues continued through the day."
