Oh silly underinformed person. There is a datacentre in Dublin. It is one of six Amazon datacentres. The others were unaffected, as were (our) public facing services, because only some (of our) servers are placed in Dublin.
It looks like a cloud from the outside. Those of on the inside know where the servers are because we want to choose where we place them for latency / redundancy reasons.
