It’s Always DNS: Lessons from the AWS Outage
In episode 404 (no pun intended!) we discuss the recurring issue of DNS outages, the recent Amazon AWS disruption, and what this reveals about our dependency on cloud services. The conversation touches on the need for tested business continuity plans, the implications of DNS failures, and the misconceptions around cloud infrastructure’s automatic failover capabilities.
