In the month we trailed it we found there were so many internal networking and performance problems. I went with with a suspiciously optimistic attitude as I am experienced systems delivery engineer and I don't find windows especially in the server special at all reverent these years, but I tried to objectify Jude it as a platform. Ill tell you what - it's built to make money for the backers - it's not built out of passion for quality or creativity. The amount of unexplained outages they deny or avoid with low even phone support desks. I would estimate that approximately 90% of the outages we noticed (all platform / service related in the Asia/Pac regions) would never appear on their service status pages. We also have been trialling office365 which runs on the platform. We measured from 2015-2016 we only had 94% availability of service with about a 1-3%/100% margin of error due to monitoring resolution etc.... data corruption, internal CA and NTP problems clearly show from the underlying PaaS, you see things bouncing around a bunch of badly related windows servers barely grasping the idea of modern virtualisation and application abstraction and purely built to make the fat fatter and as I said not out of passion.
- cesarbs 10y agoobjectify Jude -> objectively judge? :)
- BobCat 10y agoand as I said not out of passion -> ??? :p

Sounds kinda par for the course. At my last job we joked that the AWS status page would only be updated when the datacenter was literally on fire.
- barake 10y agoRed on the AWS status board means there has been an extinction level event, right? Maybe that would still be a yellow - intelligent life could evolve again and resolve the outage.
