Service is operating normally: [RESOLVED] Increased delays in EC2 instance and Status Check metrics

[Amazon Web Services]

Between 11:15 AM and 3:05 PM PDT, we experienced increased delays in EC2 instance and Status Check metrics, including DescribeInstances and DescribeInstanceStatus API results, in a single Availability Zone (use2-az1) in the US-EAST-2 Region. This issue affected the DescribeInstances, DescribeInstanceStatus APIs and new instance launches/terminations. We also experienced capacity errors during this period.

The issue is resolved and the service is operating normally.
