Finextra were reporting HBOS being affected by the harsh weather we’ve had in the UK, the article mentions the systems affected, do check it out. I wonder if this is not something we need to be thinking about. As we start scaling out our data centers, commoditizing elements of the infrastructure including the data center by business line, application or role, we need to be thinking about the accessibility for vendors, for our partners, our teams and our service providers.

This becomes even more so if we start looking at remote support, of follow the sun or follow the moon support, where we move resources and workloads around the data center, as we ask regions to cover the out of hours support, or action project support work during their business hours on our infrastructure.
