Just read this article about the recent outtages and other problems due to the overwhelming traffic that occured over the internet after the death of "The king of pop" Michael Jackson.
I've often thought of these cloud based systems as very solid architectures... and really they are.
When I think of Google, I think of an almost unsinkable ship (almost... remember the Titanic??).
But in the last couple of weeks... we've seen many of these very large systems crumble under the huge spike in traffic.
Is Michael Jackson telling us not to use Google Apps?
