I felt bad about not using redundancy features in what I'm running online. Well, only a little bit bad, I'm only a single person doing unimportant stuff. But apparently major corporations are also not running redundancy either, so I feel a bit better.

What is worrying about the AWS outage in New York however, is that it seems to have affected critical things in EU and UK as well. And wordle.

I don’t know the details, but it’s easy to do stuff like this when it’s DNS. The DNS infrastructure might not be down or non redundant. If you publish the wrong DNS record, or you accidentally delete a record that is vital to a lot of services, it looks like this. The infrastructure can be up and running perfectly, but just providing the wrong answer.
