Many reports (such as this) mentioned the "April 21 2011" incident of Amazon.com.
If Amazon.com does not lie on its status history, this incident looks to me quite controlled and not that surprising! The failures are almost contained in North Virgina data center.
(One exception: "AWS Elastic Beanstalk". Since I do not know the hosting location of "AWS Elastic Beanstalk", I will wait for the official incident report from Amazon.com.)
It is time for businesses to review their "Cloud" strategy. "Cloud" is a good way to scale out computing capacity, but not a cure-all. "Cloud" should not be "the only" strategy for your business to depend on!
The "Cloud Era" is just at the beginning. This incident is not the end of it!
