Global Internet Disrupted as Amazon Web Services Suffers Major Outage

A massive outage at Amazon Web Services (AWS), the world's largest cloud provider, caused widespread internet disruption, affecting thousands of global companies and popular online services. The issue, originating from AWS's US-EAST-1 region, was linked to its Domain Name System (DNS). Platforms like Snapchat, Reddit, Roblox, and numerous business and financial services were impacted for hours. Amazon confirmed the problem was resolved Monday evening, but the event highlighted the global economy's critical dependence on a few cloud infrastructure giants.
