How much do you guys think these frequent outages will effect their market share in cloud products?
Is this enough of a push for organizations to actually move over their infrastructure to other providers?
- ceejayoz 5y agoNot at all. The other cloud providers have had their own outages.
- bravetraveler 5y agoSadly this, people are entrenched with AWS and the... "We're not the only ones down" thing truly has some effect Organizations can more easily swallow an AWS failure when they aren't the only ones hit. They move elsewhere, those outages look more unique Folks may think multi cloud is a good idea... But you're just as likely to suffer from the extra points of failure as you are to benefit
- tyingq 5y agoMulti-cloud is such an odd idea to me. You're either building abstractions on top of things like cloud-provider specific implementations of CDNs, K8S, S3, Postgres, etc...or using the cloud just for VMs. The latter would be cheaper with just old-school hosting from Equinix, Rackspace, etc. The former feels like a losing battle.
- pm90 5y agoIt’s prompted discussions of building multi regional services in my org but not multi cloud. They would have to really really really screw up for that to happen… maybe be down for like a week or something.
