# RESOLVED: AWS outage impacting page load times

At approximately 09:00 CST Amazon Web Services' US-WEST-2 region began exhibiting connectivity issues affecting some of MetaLocator's systems.

At that time, we began our AWS region failover plan and raised our systems in US-EAST-1 as emergency failover.

AWS resolved the issue quickly and failover to US-EAST-1 was not necessary, so the failover plan was ceased.

At this time all systems are operating normally.
