- stickfigure 14y agoIf reliability is that critical, you need multiple data centers. This is far easier to implement with EC2 than by building out hardware. Also: Most downtime is caused by bad code deployment, poorly-conceived network or system configuration changes, and sysadmins with fat fingers. Do you really think your hired talent is going to be better than Amazon's hired talent?
- patrickgzill 14y agoSorry to be rude, but that is a bit incendiary of a comment. However, given stats for the past 12 months, I can show that my availability for the 2 racks I manage, is in fact, higher than AWS. Thanks for the compliment!
