edit: of course amazon marketplace runs on AWS, but its not a total outage. Some users will experience different outages, and different products that depend on AWS will be affected in different ways. Current things I've confirmed disrupted include the AWS console, some S3 buckets, various APIs to infrastructure-as-code eleements (lambda etc)
edit2: AWS has confirmed US-EAST-1 is the affected datacenter
Amazon Web Services (AWS), not amazon.com (marketplace)
AWS is one of the largest infrastructure players and runs a lot of stuff (netflix, slack, facebook, huge list)
