- Delta Air Lines CEO Ed Bastian said the massive IT outage earlier this month that stranded thousands of customers will cost it $500 million.
- The airline canceled more than 4,000 flights in the wake of the outage, which was caused by a botched CrowdStrike software update and took thousands of Microsoft systems around the world offline.
- Bastian, speaking from Paris, told CNBC’s “Squawk Box” on Wednesday that the carrier would seek damages from the disruptions, adding, “We have no choice.”
Good. They’ve been stealing from their customers for decades; this is fuckin’ karmic.
Also, maybe don’t put all your eggs into one single basket, from an infrastructure perspective.
Yeah, I say I as migrate another service to Azure…
That’s not just putting all your eggs into a single basket, that’s putting all your eggs into a rotting trashcan
Tell me you haven’t used Azure without telling me you haven’t used Azure.
Is Azure is fine. It is not amazing, it is not terrible, it is fine.
No. The cost of lost profits will just be passed on to you.
