:They claim in the video tour that they do not have any battery systems on
:the site. They rely solely on the flywheels.
And, there's nothing wrong with that...
Bottom line, regardless of the colo outage, any network that suffered
downtime did so due to their own lack of diligence. The crazy drunkard
headline seems to have been debunked, so this is nothing more than your
random run-of-the-mill outage. The obvious has been stated and restated
throughout this thread. This isn't fodder for nanog, let's move on...
cheers,
