My favorite is aws slinging “make sure you have copies in other regions”. Look. Every time an entire region has an issue on aws all the regions are fucked. APIs etc just drop or hang. If a region has dropped things are really bad. So keep paying to double up your data, but it doesn’t do any good. If Virginia East has some type of nuclear attack - I have worse problems than running my crappy CRUD app.
- outworlder 8y ago> Look. Every time an entire region has an issue on aws all the regions are fucked. This is not true. I've watched some full region outages going on while our systems were chugging along just fine. I have also seen temporary network issues in one region(that caused our monitoring to go haywire) where others were completely unaffected. What tends to happen is that AWS locates a bunch of services in us-east-1 (Route53 being one example). This may knock out the control plane for a bunch of services, which shouldn't be a thing.
