You all should add EC2 - extra bonus if you have some way of tracking performance in addition to errors (right now we're seeing EC2 instances in us-east-1c not transition out of Pending status).
I've run a business in this space since 2021, I am yet to meet a business that lets their marketing team own their status page.
You'll find most engineering teams will start owning a status page to centralise updates to their stakeholders, before eventually growing into the customer success/support org owning it to minimise support tickets during incidents.
We've been observing EC2 instances launched in us-east-1c (use1-az2) remain in Pending status for a very long time / indefinitely, starting at around 16:00 UTC.
I'm currently in the process of spinning up a k8s in us-west-2 and no issues, but, as others have said, us-east-1 is the problem child so I guess we'll see.
Most of the reports on the downdetector heatmap are coming from the NYC area, that's probably more likely to be a network issue (or even, if you can imagine it, DNS) than a real AWS failure since it's well into business hours on the West Coast.
Disclosure, I work for Datadog:

Looks fine for now.
What's updog?
Nothing much. How bout you?
Ah, you have fallen for it:

I know I could sure use some updog right about now.
Isn't that a kind of yoga pose?

This is cool, does this actually hit all the services directly (in each region) instead of pulling from AWS Status?
https://updog.ai/status/openai issue history looks terrible. Wonder how you ping openAI for this; with a completion attempt on a particular model?
Which uptime checker tool would be based on status pages (owned by the marketing department)? That defeats the whole purpose.

Marketing has nothing to do with status pages.
I highly doubt AWS health dashboards are owned by marketing

I was thinking the same thing as some sites like Google were taking a LONG time to load.
Google probably isn't using AWS for any of their infrastructure.
Internet has been very sluggish for me today too. Something may be going on (not necessarily AWS)
It's wonky for sure, but only to certain IP ranges.

I think it may be down, showing early signs based on location services (geofencing) warning.
I got a down status on https://leetcode.com/..It may be related.
Down detector is much much higher when there is a real problem.
There might be something, but wouldn’t be widespread.

Don't see any issues in us-east-2 (Ohio) with my infra, but typically issues arise in us-east-1.
