Amazon.com Outage Eases After Brief Spike in U.S. Reports

User submissions on Downdetector fell from more than 6,000 to under 1,000, indicating a broad recovery.

Overview

  • Customers in the United States reported problems accessing Amazon.com, AWS and Prime Video earlier on Nov. 5.
  • Downdetector logged as many as 6,630 outage reports at the peak before numbers declined sharply.
  • An AWS spokesperson told Reuters that AWS services are operating normally.
  • LiveMint noted 197 AWS-related reports in the past 24 hours, and its page later showed no current problems for AWS or Prime Video.
  • Coverage references a larger AWS incident in October as context, but the latest disruption appears smaller and short-lived.
