[Increased Error Rate and Latency] Service impact: Increased Error Rate and Latency

We continue to investigate instance impairments to a single Availability Zone (use1-az4) in the US-EAST-1 Region. We have experienced an increase in temperatures within a single data center, which in some cases has caused impairments for instances in the Availability Zone. EC2 instances and EBS volumes that were hosted on hardware that has been affected by the loss of power during the thermal event. Other AWS services that depend on the affected EC2 instances and EBS volumes in this Availability Zone, may also experience impairments. We will continue to provide updates as recovery continues.
