Amazon is holding emergency meetings. Engineers are being summoned. And the phrase "high blast radius" is appearing in internal briefing notes.

On March 5, 2026, Amazon's own Add to Cart button stopped working for six hours. Over 77,000 outage reports flooded in. Amazon earns approximately $1.4 million per minute in online retail revenue. That afternoon cost them tens of millions of dollars.

And it was caused by AI generated code, deployed without the seasoned engineers who used to catch these things before they went live.

Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Dropbox, and Box have collectively cut over 50,000 engineers in the past two years. The people who kept your data safe are gone. The AI generated code is shipping. And it is breaking things.

In this episode we walk through what happened, why it matters for every business storing data in the cloud, and exactly how to back up your data before the next outage hits.
