An obscure glitch buried deep in Amazon Web Services’ DynamoDB database triggered one of this year’s most sweeping internet blackouts Monday, taking down everything from Slack and Zoom to financial trading platforms.

By Monday evening, roughly 15 hours after the chaos began, AWS said it had resolved the crisis, though some customers continued reporting problems.

The malfunction traced back to a DNS resolution error in AWS’s Northern Virginia data center, which powers a staggering portion of the internet.

Slack, Zoom, Signal, WhatsApp, Snapchat, Reddit, Fortnite, Coinbase, Delta, Perplexity, and The New York Times, among others, all went dark or degraded.

Services that don’t even use DynamoDB went down too, in a cascading failure that exposed just how tightly wired AWS’s infrastructure really is.

AWS controls 30% of the cloud market — but on Monday, a single DNS glitch in one Virginia data center triggered global chaos, reportedly costing hundreds of billions of dollars. The outage showed just how quickly a single misstep in a data-center control layer can ripple across the world.
