They had no problems taking everyone’s money. Maybe companies should limit the number of sales when deploying a product tied to services they operate and need to scale.

    Bullshit, you own a cloud service and know how to scale a service to meet demand, you just fucked up.

        I think their point is that Microsoft literally had all the information they needed to prevent this from happening and they just didn’t because they were incompetent or some other human reason that had nothing to do with server capacity or or a missing Ethernet cable. There was nothing “unknown” here.

        Scaling to meet demand is literally their job. Supposedly best, which is why they have been awarded military contracts.

        They lost situational awareness, or they never had it.
