Ivan Toma (@FounderRAVERK) reported@awscloud @Google @Microsoft The water problem is only going to get bigger. We already have technology that can help data centers produce their own cooling water from the sea. Let’s solve this together.

barney (@Southclaws) reported@jonny_castles @awscloud I am seeing this too, ECR and S3 in eu-west-1, lots of "service unavailable" errors

Mr Sage (@GreatSage_0x) reportedCustos makes verdicts on AI agent transactions. Problem: it had no memory. Every decision started from zero. Meet Anamnesis — I gave it a memory layer using CockroachDB. Built for the @CockroachDB x @awscloud Hackathon
-
Harikrishna KP (@harikp2002) reported@AWSSupport Two days into migrating to AWS and both new accounts I created are locked out of every single service. S3, EC2, Lambda, DynamoDB, all of it. The accounts show as ACTIVE. Support confirmed it needs a manual fix from an internal team, then went quiet for 28 hours. Three open cases, one phone call, still completely blocked. Sitting on AWS credits I literally cannot spend. Do better please!

kakafa.btc (@kakafa_btc) reported@AWSSupport Still NO resolution after 7 days! Case ID: 17849863000462 Account hold cleared days ago, but CloudFront is STILL locked due to a backend flag sync issue. @AWSSupport keeps passing the buck. Assign a supervisor to clear this flag NOW! @awscloud #AWS #CloudFront #AWSCloud
-
M (@mdw864) reported@AWSSupport Five months of broken links & blocked support channels is unacceptable. You have more cut off core business services because you have refused to provide a person with disabilities a way to tell you that you are over billing me. Escalate to a senior rep to fix this before 9am cst
-
BOB-DO-THEM (@osangesua) reportedThis is a blatant lie intended to mislead the electorate. The glitch synchronisation in the BVAS is the reason he won't effect the upgrade because if an upgrade is carried on the BVAS, the entire calibration of glitches will disappear and the fear that @awscloud may have disabled or blocked the application that allows them to manipulate the BVAS is the reason for this unprovoked lies
-
Stephen “The Yellow Dart” Schutt (@schuttsm) reported@QuinnyPig @awscloud I get charged $0.55 every month. Fix that

Haresh Kukkreja (@HandbrakeHarry) reported@amazonIN @awscloud Your app seems to be down. Unable to contact Customer Support

Synapse Brief (@Synapse_Brief) reported@yugacohler @awscloud @CoinbaseDev The post frames this as a new capability, but Amazon already gave agents the ability to make purchases in December 2025. The Coinbase integration is the expansion, not the invention. The real bottleneck was never payment rails. It's authentication and authorization at scale. How does an agent prove it's authorized to spend, and how do you prevent a single compromised agent from draining a wallet? Coinbase's infrastructure solves the custody and settlement problem. AWS solves the identity and access management layer. The combination is what makes this production-ready. The "AI agents will outnumber humans" framing is hype. The real driver is that agents need to pay for API calls, data feeds, and compute resources autonomously. That's a practical requirement, not a sci-fi scenario. Stripe being involved is the quiet signal here. They handle the merchant side of the equation. Agents paying for things requires both the payer and the payee infrastructure. The managed aspect matters more than the payments themselves. AWS handles the compliance, KYC, and fraud detection layers that would otherwise be a nightmare to build. That's the real value proposition.

Joy | 🔥 (@JoyKingdomx) reportedAs we all know, cloud outages are not a new topic here. But what is changed is how many products now depend on the same infrastructure. A few years ago, an AWS outage mostly affected AWS customers. Where today one infrastructure issue can ripple across AI apps, APIs, developer tools, streaming platforms and payment services. That is the downside of concentration. We have seen @awscloud outages impact millions. We have also seen @OpenAI outages pause production apps because entire inference pipelines depended on a single provider. It is not the outage that matters - it is the dependency behind it. That is the reason why decentralized compute makes sense. Instead of relying on a single cloud or region, @ionet distributes compute across a global network of GPUs in 138+ countries. No infrastructure is immune to failure, the goal is to ensure one failure does not become everyone's failure.

Babak (@bbkhbb) reported@ajassy @AWSSupport what happened to customer obsession? I would like to invite you to review the interactions on AWS support case #178605390000779. There's no better way to put this, it's a sad joke. Reps don't appear to be incentivized to solve the problem nor to do the reading

Pixi Dust (@Bethco2257) reported@FmrRepMTG @amazon @awscloud walk into any Amazon office building at Seattle HQ and South Lake Union Amazon Seattle offices and instantly you can see with your own eyes… nearly 80% of staff are HB1 visa holders!!!! So yes, we have a big problem.

WPBeginner (@wpbeginner) reportedYou built your WordPress site over months (or years). One bad plugin/theme update can wipe it all out overnight. 😱 Plugin conflicts. Malware. A botched migration. A hacked server. The disasters that take down WordPress sites usually happen without warning. And here's the mistake most site owners make: they think their hosting provider's backup is enough. It's NOT. If the server fails, you lose both your site and the backup. We share the complete step-by-step guide for backing up your WordPress site the right way. Here is what you will learn: ✅ Use a Backup Plugin (Best for Most People): @DuplicatorWP is what we use across our sites. Full-site backups, disaster recovery links, and restore without having the plugin pre-installed. Free version available, Pro has scheduled backups. ✅ Use Your Hosting Provider's Backup: SiteGround (where WPBeginner is hosted) includes manual and automated daily backups on all plans. Bluehost partners with CodeGuard and Jetpack for their built-in options. ✅ Manual Backup With cPanel or FTP: Use cPanel's Backup Wizard for a full backup, or connect via FileZilla FTP to download your wp-content, themes, plugins, and wp-config.php files directly. ✅ Send Backups to Cloud Storage: Duplicator and UpdraftPlus both connect natively to Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, and Amazon S3. Never store backups on the same server as your website. If your host fails, both are gone. ✅ Set Up Automatic Scheduled Backups: Configure hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly backups in Duplicator based on how often you publish. eCommerce stores and busy blogs need daily. Slower-moving sites can get away with weekly. Ready to protect years of hard work with a proper WordPress backup system? Read the full ultimate step-by-step guide 👇 (Link is in the thread below)

Jacklyn Taylor (@Ronindrake2) reported@awscloud @AmazonHelp @amazon Yo, can any of yall explain why a review that gets flagged for "community guidelines" refuses to tell you what the issue is? Like yall's bot goes "it violates rules!" But cant tell me what part? It obviously had to note what the issue was...
-
Dhanush N (@Dhanush_Nehru) reportedOpened a support portal ticket on AWS. For a week, I heard nothing. contacted @AWSSupport by direct message and the issue was resolved in a matter of days. Their team still responds to thousands of queries every day. That's how genuine support appears. Thank you AWS!
-
Adel Bucetta (@adelbucetta) reported@tushaarmehtaa @OpenAIDevs @awscloud back to school is just a Band-Aid on a larger issue: how do we make building with ai accessible for the next 50 million people, not just 50?
-
Ayush Awasthi (@Ayush_awa) reported@AWSSupport Its the third day today. The only mail I received from aws was all about “We are getting someone to investigate this” Since then I havent received any update. My only issue is that these things are time sensitive and you cant just take days after days with no real status updates
-
Webdesign29 Création de sites internet Brest⛓️🕸️ (@Webdesign29B) reported@AWSSupport I tried every possible combination to get phone support. I think it either just doesn't exist or it is down. Someone did get back to me in chat in another ticket tho.

Corey Quinn (@QuinnyPig) reported@awscloud You have all the tools to fix this, someone’s just apparently too scared to give Charlie a crossbow and diplomatic immunity. Give him the crossbow and stand back, @satyanadella.
