> One more than one occasion there are AWS URLs, including redirects inside the console, that include US East 1 in the URL that were only spotted during an outage. Manually changing it to an different region allowed us to get around it
Yeah, that tracks. The Console has often been wonky like that.
> I've seen US East 1 outages cause autoscaling issues in other regions including failing to start new EC2s
Do you mean scaling failed due to insufficient capacity, or something else? ICE errors I get (thundering herd of attempted capacity shifting); but otherwise, that sounds implausible, and I respectfully believe you are mistaken about cause and effect. Happy to evaluate a causal chain of evidence that proves you correct, though.
