Australia's new e-health platform crashes as people rush to opt-out

Agree. AU Gov is failing in same way any big corporation fails. There is that strange notion that Managers know better than Engineers and can make technical Decisions.

Good engineers, who love coding, can design a big system, are unlikely to rule over the Design. It'll be bad engineers, now Managers, with good political skills, that got promoted because its their only way to survive, being otherwise useless.

It is totally upside-down, hence the mess.

If any AU Gov hot shot is here, I'll fix your mess, I'm good at it, did it few times before, drop a line at [email protected], I'll try to vet you :))

It will be AWS, no nonsense like kubernetes, possibly a dash of OpenBSD for public layer, least privilege IAM, Cloudformation everywhere. Solid. :) Open Sourcing it is an option too.
