Inspiring Tech Leaders · 2025-10-27 · 10 min
The recent AWS outage in the US-EAST-1 region was more than just a technical glitch, it exposed the critical vulnerabilities in a single cloud provider infrastructure. In this episode of the Inspiring Tech Leaders , I look at what caused the outage and the global ripple effect that took down major apps, banking services, and even government portals. What you’ll learn in this episode: The root cause of the failure. The disproportionate impact on sectors like finance, gaming, and government. Why the concentration of cloud power creates a "too big to fail" systemic risk. Possible mitigation strategies to avoid similar issues in the future. This episode is essential listening for planning your business continuity and risk management strategy.
