An Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud data center cluster in Bahrain has been disrupted due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. This was announced by the representative of the American company.

As reported by the Reuters agency, the disruption of the work of AWS in Bahrain is related to the “activity of unmanned aerial vehicles” in the given area. The company also noted that they are temporarily moving customers to branches in other regions. Amazon did not provide information on the extent of the damage or an estimated time frame for restoration.

On March 2, two clusters of AWS cloud data centers in the UAE were left without power after the strikes by Iranian UAVs. AWS informed about limited power supply problems in one of the clusters in Bahrain.
