News is one thing, if the app/service down impacts revenue, safety or security you won't be getting any sleep AWS or not.
No. You sit on the call and wait to restore your service to your users. There’s bullshit toil in disabling scale in as the outage gets longer.

AWS comes back. Your support rep only vaguely knows what’s going on. Your system serves some errors but digs out.
Then you go to sleep.
