Services of Snapchat, Canva, Signal, Perplexity, Duolingo, and Open AI —website and apps used by millions every day across the world— were down on Monday. The disruption appears to be linked to an outage at Amazon Web Services (AWS).
In a brief notification, AWS said it was seeing “increased error rates” and delays with “multiple AWS services”, according to The Independent.
The update said that AWS is experiencing problems at its facilities in north Virginia and issues are affecting Amazon DynamoDB and Amazon Elastic Computer Cloud — services that allow other companies to rent storage and computers to run their platforms.
“We’re aware many users are currently unable to access Coinbase due to an AWS outage,” said Coinbase.
