Japan Reviews Amazon Web Services Outage: Reuters

Japan is investigating an Amazon.com Inc AMZN Amazon Web Services outage that disrupted major online brokerages, a leading mobile phone carrier, and the country's biggest airline, Reuters reports.
The outage, at least the third for Amazon since June, hit ANA Holdings Inc ALNPY. ANA's flights got delayed after ticketing and check-in system issues. However, it sorted the problem later on.
Amazon stated that the "loss of several core networking devices" led to the six-hour disruption in the Tokyo region and had "been resolved." SBI Securities and Rakuten Securities were among the affected online brokerages.
A system glitch disrupted Mizuho Bank and Mizuho Financial Group Inc's MFG internet services.
Nippon Telegraph & Telephone Corp's NPPXF NTTYY mobile phone arm NTT Docomo said some of its services were also hit.
Price Action: AMZN shares closed lower by 0.46% at $3,463.12 on Thursday.
