It's now past 12:00 US/Pacific and the incident is still ongoing. I'm thinking that they don't have as many customers as they'd like us to believe. There's been very little discussion and no outrage. If AWS had an incident lasting this long, there would be a lot more noise.

If AWS had an incident this long, there would be no noise and no public post about it. And the customer support would keep repeating have you try buying bigger instances?

For what it's worth, my load balancer in us-central-1 is unaffected.

I can't comment as to multi-region, but we saw issues last night at around 6pm UTC, which look similar to the ongoing issues we are seeing.

The status page linked to here says that the issue spans multiple regions (across multiple continents!).

Doesn't seems to affect that much?
