More offsite storage, dear?
No thanks, think I'll remain in charge and control of my own data by keeping my 250,000 boxes onsite and paying for the people to manage them.
More onsite storage, dear?
Yes, please, I much prefer complexity associated with managing my own storage, my own applications, my own provisioning, my own backups and restores, my own security, and adding IT staff and their salary and benefits to my organization.
I get that Amazon is experiencing a major service problem and that it is affecting numerous of their customers. I just don't see a) how this is any different from what you would encounter with either physical offsite storage (weather? Fires? Earthquakes?) or b) why this still won't be resolved much faster than most organizations' IT could do on their own. I've gotta believe that this is a seriously specific and difficult problem or it'd already have been addressed - in other words, I don't think Amazon has skimped on their IT and their training the way so many other organizations do. But to tar all of cloud because of this one outage is I think seriously short-sighted and that's how I read Larry's post.
