It’s mostly a skill issue for services that go down when USE-1 has issues in AWS - if you actually know your shit, then you don’t get these kinds of issues.
Case in point: Netflix runs on AWS and experienced no issues during this thing.
And yes, it’s scary that so many high-profile companies are this bad at the thing they spend all day doing

Yeah, if you’re a major business and don’t have geographic redundancy for your service, you need to rework your BCDR plan.
But… that costs money.
Netflix did encounter issues. I couldn’t access it yesterday at noon EST. And I wasn’t alone, judging by Downdetector.ca
But Netflix did encounter issues. For example the account cancel page did not work.
I would say that’s a pretty minor issue that isn’t related to the functioning of the service itself.
