Weekly deaths have doubled 3 weeks in a row. Yes from a low base, but they have still done multiple doublings. Fortunately they are on track to only rise 50% this week.

RDS is a huge one. Switching to Graviton meant that our instances are significantly cheaper and just as fast. And there was zero switching friction.
