This statement is a little funny considering the only reason the CrowdStrike situation was such a big deal was because of how many high-profile companies are using Windows Server.

- pjmlp 2y agoNot only it already happened, the world hardly noticed as the systems got affected, given the lack of relevance on the affected systems. https://www.theregister.com/2024/07/21/crowdstrike_linux_crashes_restoration_tools/ https://www.theregister.com/2024/07/21/crowdstrike_linux_cra...
- doug713705 2y agoNoone noticed because most Linux servers does not run Crowdstrike Falcon. If the same number of Linux servers as Windows servers were affected, most of the Internet would have been down.
- kortilla 2y agoCrowdstrike is not relevant on Linux systems. don’t get it confused. The AWS stats are very clear, Microsoft is way behind in the server world.
- maxerickson 2y agoCrowdstrike literally disrupted Linux systems this year. Are you arguing that it isn't widely deployed enough to be relevant?
- kortilla 2y agoWhy is that funny? They can lose 75% of their market share and still have millions of deployments.
