Availability · Difficulty 4 of 5 · 45 min
Power loss in one availability zone
Latency spiked and some instances stopped answering after reports of power trouble in one zone of the region. Capacity should come back on its own. Confirm the workload survived the disruption and that every instance is serving again.
Where the symptom shows: EC2
Take this challenge on a live account
A live AWS account, already broken, and a clock. You fix it with the provider's own console and command line, then read a report of how you worked. We host the cloud account. Nothing lands on your bill.
