My Facebook feed this morning was filled with friends at home watching Disney+ with their children because of the snow days closing schools across the country. I know scaling a service on Day 1 is difficult but I imagine their load is much higher than expected.
- mucle6 7y agoIf a snow day is enough to overload their servers, I don't think they would stand a chance on the weekends.
- codycraven 7y agoIt's a day one launch of a huge product. I'd imagine they chose a Tuesday release so that they could have time to understand their own scaling issues before the weekend, a freak cold front seemed to sabotage that grace period and yet they responded well. Disclosure, I'm a software engineer. I also own Disney stock. No insider information, just how I'd have planned a huge release like this.
