What are you going to tell them when the other cloud services have their inevitable outages?
- PlanetLotus 7y agoI'm not the parent, but I maintain services on both AWS and Azure, and in the last few years, I can definitely say the outages on Azure have been more frequent and more severe. The only AWS outages I recall are S3 and the Dyn DNS issue that brought many other providers down too.
- user5994461 7y agoThe Dyn DNS outage was easier to explain. Half of the internet is down, it's not just AWS.
- PlanetLotus 7y agoExactly. As an AWS customer, that outage didn't really bother me because it was obvious it impacted many other unrelated services too.
- cheeze 7y agoI'd tell them "other providers have inevitable outages, however..." 1. The other providers have a better track record 2. The other providers don't go down globally multiple times a year
