Iran strikes on Amazon data centers caused permanent loss of customer data

Iran's military strikes on Amazon Web Services (AWS) data centers in the Middle East have caused significant damage, exceeding the design limits of AWS's backup and disaster recovery systems. As a result, some customers have reported permanent loss of data stored in the affected data centers, which were targeted in the conflict. AWS has confirmed the damage but has not disclosed the extent of the data loss. The incident highlights the vulnerability of cloud-based infrastructure to physical attacks and the potential consequences for businesses that rely on cloud services.
