Email outage at Aloft

Wanted to give a heads up - We are not currently able to reach our email system as it is heavily dependant on the Amazon AWS services and it would appear they have been attacked this morning.

Love that Amazon is slow but up, but they are throttling third parties hard. Thanks Jeff!

For the record, I did not know our email system used AWS servers, but not surprised.
 

Amazon Web Services outage shows internet users ‘at mercy’ of too few providers, experts say​

Crash that hit apps and websites around world demonstrates ‘urgent need for diversification in cloud computing’

...
"To aid the recovery, AWS said it was putting in place limits on the number of requests that could be made on its platform."
