I worked at a company where the whole server room was flooded. They had to replace everything and restore stuff from backups.
Two weeks later, they had to do it all over again because something went wrong with the air conditioning and the servers got cooked.
I kept recommending going with AWS because of that... I no longer work there, but as far as I know they're still running their own servers.
- icebraining 11y agoWhy AWS and not just co-locating the servers somewhere?
- mdpopescu 11y agoI wasn't dead set on AWS, I was just using it as an example. Any sufficiently large company would have worked.
