Last update from Apollo GraphQL
As a result of the AWS us-east-1 system recovery, our own systems have also recovered, including AWS Uplink and AWS-hosted Cloud Routers. At this time we will mark this issue as Resolved, though we will continue to monitor for any possible reoccurrence. As noted in a previous update, the default configuration for Apollo Router and Apollo Gateway deployments is to roam between Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Amazon Web Services (AWS) endpoints in the event that one or the other is available. If you have changed your configuration to rely on merely one provider, we recommend considering a configuration with fallback redundancy. Please contact support if you need assistance with this config...
