@7EPlusInc ... Amen brother, I agree with you.
I can't believe a place like Amazon doesn't run redundant servers and have backups of their own backups. It's no solution to expect the customer to double-cloud, cloud being a misnomer at best, when Amazon should be doing it already, along with colocations and gobs of verification data.
I'm not happy to see anyone lose money, but I am glad to see we're finally starting to get reality checks on these (mis-named) clouds. It's a dumb concept and Amazon could have done a lot better. But they didn't. Neither will others, even in the face of more events like this one.
