Thinking in terms of the cloud, and not infrastructure

We will now describe a real incident that took place in a datacenter in late December, 2011, when dozens of alerts were received from our live monitoring system. This was a result of losing connectivity to the datacenter. In response to this, administrator rushed to the Network Operations Center (NOC), hoping that it was only a small glitch in the monitoring system. With so much redundancy, we may wonder how everything can go offline. Unfortunately, the big monitoring screens in the NOC room were all red, which is not a good sign. This was the beginning of a very long nightmare.

As it happens, this was caused by an electrician who was working in the datacenter and mistakenly triggered the fire alarm. Within seconds of this occurring, the fire suppression system set off and released its aragonite on top of the server racks. Unfortunately, this kind of fire suppression system made so much noise when it released its gas that sound waves instantly killed hundreds of hard drives, effectively shutting down the data center facility. It took months to recover from this.
