PSA: looks like an outage at us-west-2 - we’re seeing timeouts between lambda and QLDB:

11:25 AM PDT We are investigating an issue which is affecting network traffic for some customers using AWS services in the US-WEST-2 Region.

12:13 PM PDT We continue to investigate the issue affecting network connectivity within a single Availability Zone (usw2-az2) in the US-WEST-2 Region. While we continue to work towards root cause, we believe that the issue is affecting connectivity to Network Load Balancers from EC2 instances, connectivity from Lambda to EC2 instances and other AWS services, as well as connectivity between EC2 and some AWS services using PrivateLink. In an effort to further mitigate the impact, we are shifting some services and network flows away from the affected Availability Zone to mitigate the impact.

Are you using QLDB?

Yup - giving a talk on it at fintech devcon next week

oo nice

it was tough for me to decide between hosting our app on us-east-1 or the newer and less crowded us-east-2. ultimately I went with us-east-1, because I figured if UE1 has an outage, over half the Internet is out, so people will understand if our app is busted 😄

haha I picked us-west-2 for the exact opposite reason - I heard us-east-1 is too big to properly manage so wanted off the titanic

yeah, that was my reasoning toward considering us-east-2 as well 🙂

Well seemms to be fixed now (or at least they’ve routed traffic outside of the affected AZ)
