     @mangeurdenuage Yeah, I don't see why cloud customers don't default to multiple zones, so a localized outage doesn't take their whole service down. I mean, I know it costs more that way, but "more reliable" is one of the main selling points of #Amazon #AWS and other big clouds.

     @mangeurdenuage “We saved $50/month by moving to the cloud and not adding another region. Then AWS went down right at the beginning of our holiday peak sales season and we lost $100,000 of sales in one day.”
