What aren’t they saying?
I’m pretty sure there’s more to the story. Mainframe going down is a pretty rare occurrence, even today. A data center without redundant power? Where? That’s extremely rare—even in locations where the equipment is being housed internally.
Just seems fishy to me.
A month ago Canadian Stock Exchange went down. Screwed trading badly. They’re still trying to recover. It was a big deal. Only one to report it was CNBC. The outage was due to a “storage failure”. Rumor has it that the storage was Pure. Not a single word about this from the Register.
My point is, more info. Cover it in depth not just high level overviews.
