I'm right in the middle of an AWS-run training and we literally can't run the exercises because of this.

let me repeat that: my AWS trainign that is run by AWS that I pay AWS for isn't working, because AWS is having control plane (or other) issues. This is several hours after the initial incident. We're doing training in us-west-2, but the identity service and other components run in us-east-1.

I’m running EKS in us-west-2. My pods use a role ARN and identity token file to get temporary credentials via STS. STS can’t return credentials right now. So my EKS cluster is “down” in the sense that I can’t bring up new pods. I only noticed because an auto-scaling event failed.
We ran through the whole 4.5 hour training and the training app didn't work the entire time.
