Amazon Web Services server in North Virginia is experiencing “high error rates”
As the Amazon Web Services twitter itself commented to us a few hours ago, its servers were suffering drops and delays, and that these were not only affecting them directly, but that it was also happening to a multitude of companies that use their services. At first many users were thinking that our connection had begun to fail but seeing the problem globally, the company decided to announce it through the social network.
