Some platforms are multi-cloud, but honestly, not enough. If you rely heavily on a SaaS vendor and their backend is tied firmly to a single cloud provider, you are carrying quite a bit of business risk whether you recognize it or not.This is one of the terrifying things about cloud computing.

The number of business owners I run across who are completely OK with not understanding or acknowledging risks that are inherent to cloud computing is countless.

Things seemed back to normal when my alarm went off on time, though.
The parent company of the grain elevator we use I guess uses their cloud services. I can’t access the load tickets online. Also the pivotal Weather website I look at has outages because of the same thing. Pretty wild.Must have affected Ring as well.

I read that it had to do with EC2 and some updates made where it was tripping up trying to find healthy instances…. I thought it was just US EAST, and some companies automatically fail over to WEST. My company was hit pretty hard.I heard DNS issues. All that tells me is that 1) It really is DNS issues OR 2) A network guy who has no idea what the problem is said "DNS Issues" because it is impossible to prove a negative and many times it is DNS issues
Tons of them. About everything I use has been having huge issues.Any of you seeing issues with it directly or applications you use that lean on it.
You really don't want me to get started on dealership cybersecurity defenses...if you have any, you will be in the top 1%...I have no idea what any of you are saying, but it sounds bad.
Yeah I feel like Brick from Anchorman, just smiling and looking around at everybody, pretending to understand.I have no idea what any of you are saying, but it sounds bad.
