  4. identified Jul 09, 2025, 06:37 PM UTC

    We have identified that a workflow within AWS infrastructure has become stuck, which is causing the ongoing delays and intermittent 5XX errors. This issue is a secondary effect stemming from yesterday's AWS outage and appears to be related to an underlying software fault within an AWS system. Volt's Engineering team is actively working with AWS Support to resolve the stuck workflow. This issue requires AWS intervention to restore normal functionality, as it stems from their infrastructure. We will continue to provide updates as we work with AWS to resolve this issue.

    Volt's Engineering team is continuing to work on a fix.
