I've contributed to building out data centers, as well as managed colos for others, primarily in downtown Chicago at Level3 and at 350 E Cermak. I am familiar with architecture required for reliability and diversity, from power and fiber in all the way up the stack to the Kubernetes cluster and software defined networking. If you participate in the capital markets, your data traverses systems I've participated in designing and implementing. There is a time and place for complexity (in this context, large/global distributed systems), but too often, complexity exists where it need not (imho).
