Amazon on Monday (local time) announced that its systems are largely back online following a major outage caused by technical issues within its cloud computing arm, Amazon Web Services (AWS).<\/p>\n

While the company reported its systems to be back online, several users continued to experience residual delays across various services.<\/p>\n

According to CNN<\/em>, the disruption, which began overnight, temporarily brought down numerous high-profile websites, apps, and essential digital platforms across the globe, including apps like Snapchat and Facebook, gaming platforms such as Fortnite and Roblox, streaming services including Disney+ and Hulu, and critical services like Delta Air Lines, United Airlines, and McDonald\u2019s.<\/p>\n

Financial institutions and crypto platforms, including Coinbase, also reported interruptions.<\/p>\n

In addition to this, AI firm Perplexity and various smart home devices connected through Amazon\u2019s ecosystem were aso affected.<\/p>\n

According to CNN, AWS confirmed that it was experiencing \u201csignificant error rates for requests” at 1:26 am ET (10:56 am IST). The issue was later identified as a fault in the Domain Name System (DNS), which functions as the internet\u2019s address directory, converting user-friendly web domains into numerical IP addresses understood by servers.<\/p>\n

Though data remained secure, users were unable to access it, effectively separating many applications from their back-end systems.<\/p>\n

A few hours later at 6:35 am ET (4:05 pm IST), Amazon confirmed that the DNS problem had been resolved. The company recommended that affected businesses clear their caches, temporary storage used to speed up service, to fully restore operations.<\/p>\n
