Cloudflare is experiencing a technical outage on Thursday, alongside multiple issues reported with Amazon Web Services, according to Downdector.
The new Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) device increases bandwidth by 73% and reduces power consumption by 35%, according to AWS.
A recent Amazon Web Services (AWS) outage disrupted popular apps and sites – including Snapchat, Reddit, and some banking services – before service steadied.
According to AWS, the AI agent it built on Transform automates much of the workflow. It maps out the dependencies that an application uses and creates a plan for moving the software to the Amazon unit’s cloud. It then generates the necessary code.
More than 1,000 companies had 6.5 million reports of disruption, including Snapchat, Reddit, Roblox and Lloyds bank.
Matt Rehder, AWS’s VP for core networking, said that for customers, the hyperscaler’s use of its own suped-up transponders means “faster data transfer speeds, improved application performance, and more sustainable operations without increased costs.”
A Cloudflare outage caused major disruptions to platforms like X, ChatGPT, and others. The issue stemmed from a hidden software bug unrelated to an attack.
