We have restored all traffic to Kinesis Data Streams via all endpoints, and it is now operating normally. We have also resolved the error rates invoking CloudWatch APIs. We continue to work towards full recovery for IoT SiteWise, and details of the service status are below. All other services are operating normally.

AWS is the most widely-used cloud computing services globally, so any issues can cause severe damage to other web services and apps, as evidenced by the number of companies affected by the outage.
