All of our S3 assets are unavailable. Cloudfront is accessible but returning a 504 status with the message: "CloudFront is currently experiencing problems with requesting objects from Amazon S3."

Yup, same here. It has been a few minutes already. Wanna bet the green checkmark[1] will stay green until the incident is resolved? [1] https://status.aws.amazon.com/

Just went yellow

Edit: nevermind

I'm running into timeouts trying to download elixir packages, and I'm willing to bet this is the cause

Any specific regions? us-west-2 seems fine to me. [edit] now I can't see any of my buckets in the web interface.

Appears to be us-east-1

Down for us as well. We have cloudfront in front of some of our s3 buckets and it is responding with

    CloudFront is currently experiencing problems with requesting objects from Amazon S3.

Can I also say I am constantly disappointed by AWS's status page: https://status.aws.amazon.com/ it seems whenever there is an issue this takes a while to update. Sometimes all you see is a green checkmark with a tiny icon saying a note about some issue. Why not make it orange or something. Surely they must have some kind of external monitor on these things that could be integrated here?

edit: Since posting my comment they added a banner of

"Increased Error Rates

We are investigating increased error rates for Amazon S3 requests in the US-EAST-1 Region."

However S3 still shows green and "Service is operating normally"

http://downdetector.com/status/aws-amazon-web-services looks like a reasonable alternative place to check/report downtime.

They don't show it on the status dashboard at https://status.aws.amazon.com/ (at least at the time I originally posted this comment). But if you go to your personal health dashboard ( https://phd.aws.amazon.com/phd/home#/dashboard/open-issues ) they report an S3 operational issue event there. Edit: Mine is reporting region us-east-1 Edit 2: And now the event disappeared from my personal health dashboard too. But we a…
