Over the past couple of hours, I've been hit with a lot of 500 error responses (UnknownError) and there's also been an increase in throttling from DynamoDB. This issue is happening across various tables and accounts. Is anyone else facing this? I checked the health dashboard and didn't find any known issues, plus the table metrics aren't showing any read or write errors.

Yeah, our account rep confirmed that there are issues with DynamoDB. It's affecting many of our services that rely on it.
I’m in the same boat. We’re encountering '500 internal server error' messages with this error code: { "__type": "com.amazon.coral.service#ServiceUnavailableException", "Message": "Request Expired" }.
I can confirm I’m seeing similar issues in ap-southeast-2. Definitely feels like there’s something off with the service right now.
No specific issues reported for me today, but I'm running a scan on my whole table which might be hitting the limits, hence the capacity issues. Just keeping my fingers crossed it’s not an AWS problem!
I see a lot of people reporting issues across different regions, not just ours. Service degradation started around 2AM UTC and it seems to be widespread.

Same here! It really seems like common issues across regions.
