Re:AWS Multiple Services Down in us-east-1 by chanux on Monday October 20, 2025 @06:30AM (#45642301)
I get you. I am with you. But isn't money/resources always a constraint to have a solid backup solution?

I guess the reason why people are not doing it is because it hasn't been demonstrated it's worth it, yet!

I've got to admit though, whenever I hear about having a backup plan I think having apples to apples copy elsewhere which is probably not wise/viable anyway. Perhaps having just enough to reach out to the service users/customers suffice.

Also I must add I am heavily influenced by a comment by Adrian Cockroft on why going multi cloud isn't worth it. He worked for AWS (at the time at least) so I should have probably reached to the salt dispenser.

There are no comments on this comment yet.
