		decimalenough 76 days ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: AWS multiple services outage in us-east-1 us-east1 is supposed to consist of a number of "availability zones" that are independent and stay "available" even if one goes down. That's clearly not happening, so yes, this is very much a cloud failure.
