About AWS eu-west-1

AWS's eu-west-1 region, located in Ireland, is a high-traffic footprint inside Amazon Web Services. Common workloads include EU-hosted workloads with data-residency requirements (GDPR); degradation in eu-west-1 therefore tends to be felt by users of those services before official acknowledgement. What makes eu-west-1 distinct is that it concentrates a disproportionate share of customer workloads. This page tracks reachability and latency from outside Amazon Web Services's own network, so a regional issue can be visible here before it lands on the official AWS status page.

Why this may differ from the official AWS status page

Provider status pages are component-level and human-curated. This page is endpoint-level and continuous, so it will diverge during early-stage incidents.
