A widespread technology outage is disrupting flights, banks, media outlets and companies around the world.
The website DownDectector, which tracks user-reported internet outages, recorded growing outages in services at Visa, ADT security and Amazon, and airlines including American Airlines and Delta.
This outage has affected the City of Dothan - Houston County Communications District and other areas.
The system used to notify the fire and EMS was down. The Southern Software program used in the 911 Centers was down and all information had to be kept manually to be entered at a later time.
The 911 Centers have contingency plans but this was a problem that was not isolated to Dothan - Houston County but all over.
