    I have a feeling the big impact is going to be in other services, namely AWS. Makes me wonder if some new global outages are coming, which are always fun to deal with.

      Yeah, there’s going to be hilariously bad outages at AWS within like a year.

        Yeah… I didn’t choose it, but some of the services from my employer run there. May be a good time to make some moves, we’ll see.

        Not really going to be an issue I can fix obviously, but I’ll be making even more backups than normal…

          To where? Google? Azure? There’s a reason we call them Frugal and Unsure at my side job. If AWS sucks in the next year, that’ll barely bring it down to their level. Hell, if AWS sucks ALL NEXT YEAR with a clown-car style outage every week, then maybe.

        Why? Amazon seems to have built an amazing system with AWS, but does it need the same amount of staff time to maintain it that it needed to develop it?

        If Amazon acknowledges that it isn’t going to be developing new products to the scale it did for the past decade, it probably doesn’t need the headcount it had before.
