- JCM9 11mo agoYes, although unfortunately it’s not how AWS sold regions to customers. AWS folks consistently told customers that regions were independent and customers architected on that belief. It was only when stuff started breaking that all this crap about “well actually stuff still relies on us-east-1” starts coming out.
- Agingcoder 11mo agoYes - they told me quite specifically that until they launch their their sovereign cloud, the mothership will be around.
- immibis 11mo agoWhich are lies btw - Amazon has admitted the "EU sovereign cloud" is still susceptible to US government whims.
