Error: "Backend service unavailable" when trying to start a cluster in community edition.

I am using community edition of databricks for learning and hands-on projects. However, when I try to create a cluster today, I am getting an error popup- "Backend service unavailable". I would like to know if it is a problem with my account or a backend issue.

Looking at several other topics created today with the same error message it seems likely that the CE is unavailable at the moment.
