What does Amazon's multiday cloud outage mean for EDA cloud services?
April 25, 2011
Amazon’s Elastic Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) is perhaps the most famous cloud utility on the planet and it has suffered a multi-day outage that is just finally clearing on Sunday, April 24 (Easter Sunday, by coincidence). There will be some that say this failure of Amazon’s EC2 service, which appears to be localized to Amazon’s North Virginia site, is a black eye for cloud computing. Possibly fatal. Really? No one’s ever heard of a non-cloud data center going down? Amazon will no doubt learn from this experience and its cloud services will become that much more reliable in the future.
