Re:AWS Multiple Services Down in us-east-1 by jacquesm on Monday October 20, 2025 @01:57PM (#45646992)
This is already happening. I have looked at quite a few companies in the energy space this year, two of them had AWS as a critical dependency in their primary business processes and that could definitely have an impact on the grid. To their defense: AWS presumably tests their fall-back options (generators) with some regularity. But this isn't a farfetched idea at all.
