@hu_logic jfc somewhere, someone's carefully designed and rehearsed DR plan* just quietly went into effect and failed over successfully and he doesn't even realize what happened. 🤦

*Assuming it isn't blue/green or continual deployment bouncing between locations on every push already.

@reneestephen @nobodyzhome @rodhilton Somewhere, some CTO talking to his VP of infrastructure: "Sure, we have DR plans and architecture. But do we have Musk-proof DR plans and architecture? Make it happen!"

@hu_logic none of this will matter soon anyway because he is definitely not paying his bills -- either on-prem or cloud. Can't fail over if there's nowhere to fail over to! *clever-temple-tap.jpg*

@grrrr_shark that depends on the landlords he stiffs and the forbearance of various cloud providers to take a reputation and NRR hit. If they believe he won't turn it around any time soon they'll cut their losses and start proceedings, but... it might take awhile. @hu_logic @nobodyzhome @rodhilton

@grrrr_shark @reneestephen @hu_logic @rodhilton @nobodyzhome He’s also running out the clock on several certifications; they’re either expiring now or in the next couple of months, and you just *know* that the people responsible for staying on top of this and who know which forms to send where got fired in that first purge.

we’re assuming somebody didn’t point him at a rack of IDK, HVAC, tell him it was vital vital server equipment and turn it back on as soon as he left the room.

Or equally likely, he’s just fried HA and yeah, everything still works…

Or just a loss in surge capacity.

The difference between NBD and OMG is often no more than when it happens.

But fried HA means someone needs to spend time, maybe dollars, standing shit back up. Which is not always risk free either.
