I'm similarly skeptical it's a genuine outage given how so much stuff nowadays is done with cloud computing which enables dynamic on-demand procurement of server resources. Or whatever the correct terminology is to describe that.

    hardly a silver bullet tho. capacity shortages, running up against any of dozens of quotas, or even just shit application code can and will fuck over even the best designed autoscaled cloud shit
