There is a topic but it's in a dark corner on the forums so I don' think if people noticed it.
So what is your thoughts? Is using global data center systems worth the risk? Meaning the risk of not having transportation banks hospitals etc?

Actually we have azure at work but we did not see this in action, it did not affect us.

Also was this a big test disguised as an error?Not saying just asking or it's an innocent "error" Klaus talk about it a few years ago and when Klaus talk...

My initial thoughts is that we are risking a lot just putting our heads in the ground and hopping nothing would happen. Well..
The incident clearly showed there was not a backup solution even if there should be one in theory. What if in the near future that everything are zipping into a few global centers is becoming more and more common something similar will happen? And what if people take advantage to do they evil deeds? So is this moving forward of moving backward as global data holding not like it's the innovation of the century. From our part we are having more trouble than benefits with azure. The only one might be not having to preserve servers.But we pay for them "invisibly".
