Two days after Amazon Web Services (AWS) users were stunted by a systems crash, Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) issued an explanation.

According to reports by Reuters, Amazon’s S3 team executed a command Tuesday to eliminate a few servers for a specific S3 subsystem. However, the input was incorrectly entered, and servers for an additional two subsystems were unintentionally removed.

The service failure has prompted two corporate responses.

First, Amazon will implement changes to accelerate the recovery time of critical S3 subsystems.

Second, the company will prioritize a plan to partition the S3 index subsystem, which was originally scheduled for later this year.

Amazon stock had fallen as low as 9 percent following Tuesday’s outage, but the shares have bounced back and are now trading around $849.26.
