Learning doesn't magically triple your hosting budget or your ops team headcount. Sometimes 99.9% availability is all you can afford... or all that makes sense

Learning doesn't magically triple your hosting budget or your ops team headcount. Sometimes 99.9% availability is all you can afford... or all that makes sense to do the work for. Netflix didn't go down, though; I've been watching TV on it throughout this incident.
- krenoten 14y agoTrue, and learning on a monday morning is certainly easier than learning during peak hours for some of these companies. It does lead one to reexamine the value of another 9, however. Out of curiosity, does it often cost triple to shift half of the instances/LB's/etc... to another datacenter and implement the proper consistency mechanisms?
