Amazon's AWS is unable to restore access to Bahrain, one UAE cloud data zone after war damage
Amazon's cloud computing unit AWS said the damage in Bahrain spanned multiple so-called availability zones, which are clusters of one or more data centres in the same geographic region.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is currently unable to restore access to its cloud-computing facility in Bahrain and one of its three data hosting zones in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) following damage caused by the Iran war, according to a Reuters status update. AWS explained that the damage was widespread, affecting multiple availability zones within Bahrain, which are clusters of one or more data centers in the same geographic region.
The company stated that the extent of the damage exceeded what its regional and multi-AZ services are designed to handle. AWS assured Bahrain customers that they would be supported in re-establishing operations in other regions.
