Amazon has been unable to restore access to some data stored at Persian Gulf facilities damaged during the US-Iran war, Bloomberg reports.
Why it mattersThe immediate significance is a reminder that cloud availability still depends on physical sites, and that damage to those sites can leave data inaccessible even when the service itself remains online. The report does not say how much data is affected, which customers are involved or when access might return.
Discuss: How much visibility should cloud customers have into the physical resilience and recovery status of the facilities holding their data?
