>Yes it does happen but very rarely to the tune of a few hours every 5-10 years.
It is rare, but it happens at LEAST 2-3x a year. AWS us-east-1 has a major incident affecting multiple services (that affect most downstream aws services) multiple times a year. Usually never the same root cause.
Not very many people realize that there are some services that still run only in us-east-1.
