It’s back now, at least for me. amazon.com <http://amazon.com/> would resolve, but www was cnamed to a broken alias. Was down for about 20 mins, didn’t affect AWS. The strange part - why is amazon using Oracle (Dyn) and Neustar (ultradns) for dns? I’d expect them to trust route53, but I guess redundancy...

Amazon goofed up their DNS for a bit, the A record for www.amazon.com wasn't there and the raw amazon.com was redirecting to www. Some discussion on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23341170 On Thu, May 28, 2020 at 3:49 PM Dan Walters via Outages <outages@outages.org> wrote:

It looks like a failure somewhere in the CNAME chain from AWS to akamaiedge. Initial CNAME on ultradns worked, it broke a couple of steps further. jlk> The strange part - why is amazon using Oracle (Dyn) and Neustar jlk> (ultradns) for dns?
