Amazon is having an outage in us-east-1, and it is bleeding over elsewhere, like eu: https://status.aws.amazon.com/

Those 2 services that are being marked as having problems in other regions have fairly hard dependency on us-east-1. So that would be why.
Is that fail-failover?
I think its a factorial fail.
It is failures all the way down.
A disc of failures resting on elephants of failures resting on a giant turtle of failures? Or are you more a turtles of failures all the way down sort of person?
