you want a take about the AWS outage? fine, here's a take
Well said! "An AWS outage at this point is like an act of God." Yeah...It's like... a hurricane. When your code is in the cloud, it will be subject to thunderstorms.
Good analogy, I like it
- wished I had thought of that over the past few years when trying to explain outages to very senior leadership. Thunderstorms & clouds.
Yeah.... Very true.
This statement - I LOVE THIS STATEMENT:
--- "when everybody’s down, nobody is down" (even though 'everyone' is out of commission)
Pleassseeee....
It so true but this statement, this one is EVEN MORE VALID:
--- "xxxx has become too big for you to avoid failing."
---- use any super large entity for the x's.
Good write up.
