Microsoft Azure suffers outage after cooling issue

If a single bank is down or Reddit (lol) then the impact is fairly limited, but if one of the 3 major cloud providers, which powers large parts of the internet is down for an entire day, then the impact is a little bit more critical I would say ;).

There's a reason why Azure has a SLA and Reddit doesn't ;)

Also if you start comparing the big companies with GitLab then we don't have to continue talking anymore. It's not ok to nuke your production db and that's why everyone in the tech scene laughs about GitLab and comparing them to Azure is like comparing a lego house to brick and mortar.

At GitLab we are always trying to iterate and we learned a lot from our incident with the database.

The one thing we are proud of is our transparency. The community really appreciates our openness and we are happy about it.

Here's the one example https://about.gitlab.com/2017/02/01/gitlab-dot-com-database-...
