Amazon has confirmed a loss of power within a single data center within the east coast Region of the United States. This is affecting availability and connectivity to these instances that are part of the affected data center within the affected Availability Zone. They continue to work to address the issue and restore power within the affected data center. This is causing slow response time from the platform, as well as an inability for the platform to load at all for some people. We will provide updates as we have them. We're in contact with AWS and are carefully monitoring the issue. To receive alerts on the latest status, subscribe at https://status.aws.amazon.com/
