Timely..been trying to apply a software update and download garageband for the last hour. Should've checked their status page. Guess, i'll wait it out.

Any relation between this outage and Amazon's from earlier?

Unlikely but a few of their datacenters are down the street from one another so could be related. We'll know when/if they tell us the cause.

They have backup power systems and multiple backbone connections.

Apple uses Azure and AWS for a lot of their compute. It's not unlikely that an Amazon outage could affect their systems too.

But is in the process of moving to their own datacenters:

Unlikely they have their own data centers.

"Unlikely, they have their own data centers" or "Unlikely [that] they have their own data centers" ?

It doesn't matter, neither is factually correct.
