well, time to find out who has failure tolerance built in to the architecture 8^)
failure tolerance is an alien technology for amazon...

#12SQS is the specific service giving me a ton of trouble right now. Hope they resolve this quickly. Had rayguns about sqs all night heh.
So are they saying they are throttling SQS because of the DynamoDB issue?

I'm not sure. I think many of the other services mentioned probably rely internally on SQS, so resolving the SQS issues might resolve most of the other issues as well.
Not completely sure though whether DynamoDB would benefit from relying internally on SQS.

#14This seems like another reason to not rely on Amazon-specific services, other than the obvious vendor lock-in. At least in the event of an instance outage you could conceivably migrate off Amazon to another VPS provider. No one using DynamoDB has an alternative.
You still depend on some provider. Or, are you talking about multi cloud installations ?

Here's the SQS Error Log right now:
3:14 AM PDT We are investigating increased error rates in the US-EAST-1 Region.
4:06 AM PDT We can confirm increased error rates for CreateQueue, SendMessage and ReceiveMessage API calls in the US-EAST-1 Region and continue to work towards resolution.
5:07 AM PDT We can confirm increased error rates for CreateQueue, SendMessage and ReceiveMessage API calls in the US-EAST-1 Region. As we work towards recovery, error rates may temporarily increase.
6:06 AM PDT We can confirm significantly increased error rates for CreateQueue, SendMessage and ReceiveMessage API calls in the US-EAST-1 Region. As we work towards recovery, error rates may temporarily increase in error rates.

DynamoDB now support cross-region replication [0] so you can build more resilient applications with it

#17Amazon CTO: We designed DynamoDB to operate with at least 99.999% availability :D
Re: AWS US East is experiencing high error rates on several services
#18DynamoDB is literally a garbage. That's why Amazon does not provide any SLA for the service... Even cheap Azure Storage provides cross-region failover.

#19I noticed this because I was unable to checkout on Amazon Prime Now just now.

Garbage you say? Dynamodb blazed a trail for many open source, eventually consistent kv databases. Certainly not garbage.
