I’m not affiliated with Netflix, but the negative tone of some of the comments here is hilarious. Would the critics care to share how their traffic/uptime ratio compares to Netflix’s? On weekends, Netflix is responsible for about 50% of the packets on the Internet. On Earth. Netflix is down how often? But please, do share how you once replicated a MySQL database from prod to a staging environment.
