AWS crash causes $2,000 Smart Beds to overheat and get stuck upright

TLDR

An AWS outage caused Eight Sleep's smart beds to malfunction, leaving users stuck in uncomfortable conditions. The outage disrupted cloud connectivity, affecting temperature control and biometric tracking.

I can’t even imagine spending that much on a bed and having to connect it to the internet. What mattress needs to be connected to AWS. 🤦
