This updated analysis is based on StatusGator outage data collected from January 1 to December 9, 2025. We decided to review our AWS analysis of outages in 2022 due to several new AWS incidents, especially another widely discussed AWS outage in us-east-1 (N. Virginia) that occurred on October 20, 2025.
We’ve expanded the report with fresh 2025 regional data as well as a new breakdown of affected AWS services.
