Update: As of now, both AWS servers appear to be back up and running; websites like Twitch, Netflix, and PlayStation Network are up and running on our end.

The massive Amazon Web Services, or AWS, outage affected some of the largest websites and services on the Internet, including Twitch, PlayStation Network, Doordash, and League of Legends. The outage now appears to be under control.

According to Amazon's AWS Service Health Dashboard website, Internet connectivity is currently affecting servers in the western United States, particularly in Oregon and northern California.

At this time, Amazon has acknowledged the issue and appears to have restored connectivity to both servers.

US-WEST-1, which includes northern California, is fully operational again. Amazon engineers stated that connectivity within this region was not affected in the first place. In other words, most of the problems appear to have been caused by US-WEST-2 in Oregon. Nevertheless, US-WEST-2 also appears to be back up and running.

This outage does not appear to be as widespread as the one on Tuesday, December 7, so it may not affect as many sites and services. Also, since this outage is more regional in nature, the impact on users may vary by location. In any case, below is a list of the main websites and services affected as listed on Down Detector:
