I am looking first hand reports on the impact of the attacks on AWS in ME-CENTRAL-1 and ME-SOUTH-1.
Those have taken hits in one (south) and two (CENTRAL) AZs.
My observation is that there are more AWS services disrupted and degraded than I expected. But my view is based on AWS on reporting: https://health.aws.amazon.com/health/status
But I would also like to hear about experiences of moving services to another AZ during those incidents.
Background: The cloud transition has made a strategic target out of enterprise IT. I want to learn for my customers, how such incidents play out for cloud-centric enterprises in practice. I expect cloud DCs to be target also elsewhere in the world as part of the hybrid warfare.

@masek We have (had?) stuff in me-central-1. While one AZ was offline some redundancy for us got lost, but everything basically kept working as normal.
But once the second AZ went away we are basically dead in the water there - while some stuff still responds, basically nothing really works - the API+EKS controlplanes do not respond, elasticcache/redis complaining about being read-only etc.
Starting new instances in the surviving AZ is also no longer possible.
The majority of our affected services have been migrated to other locations so far, most back into our own infrastructure in Europe - those were mainly with AWS-UAE to be more local to some customers in the area.

@masek I’ve seen both @snipe and @benschwarz post about this. Maybe they are up for a chat?
