Many of the world’s biggest websites and apps are down due to an outage affecting Amazon Web Services, the BBC reports.
Snapchat, Duolingo, Zoom and Roblox have all been impacted, as well as customers of banks including Lloyds and Halifax.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is Amazon’s cloud computing division, and its infrastructure underpins millions of large companies’ websites and platforms.
In the latest statement from Amazon Web Services said: “We continue to observe recovery across most of the affected AWS Services. We can confirm global services and features that rely on US-EAST-1 have also recovered. We continue to work towards full resolution and will provide updates as we have more information to share.”
