The main issue appears to be DynamoDB Here's a copy from the status page. 3:00 AM PDT We are investigating increased error rates for API requests in the US-EAST-1 Region. 3:26 AM PDT We are continuing to see increased error rates for all API calls in DynamoDB in US-East-1. We are actively working on resolving the issue. 4:05 AM PDT We have identified the source of the issue. We are working on the recovery. 4:41 AM PDT We continue to work towards recovery of the issue causing increased error rates for the DynamoDB APIs in the US-EAST-1 Region. 4:52 AM PDT We want to give you more information about what is happening. The root cause began with a portion of our metadata service within DynamoDB. This is an internal sub-service which manages table and partition information. Our recovery efforts are now focused on restoring metadata operations. We will be throttling APIs as we work on recovery. 5:22 AM PDT We can confirm that we have now throttled APIs as we continue to work on recovery. 5:42 AM PDT We are seeing increasing stability in the metadata service and continue to work towards a point where we can begin removing throttles.
