Microsoft Cloud Services Had 5 Hour Outage [UPDATE 2]
,----[ Quote ]
| On the heels of my story about the Microsoft
| (MSFT) TechNet registration servers being down
| for five days, I received an email from a
| reader claiming that Microsoft Online Service,
| the current name for its cloud offerings, had
| a five hour outage. According to the tip, that
| included the hosted Exchange email service.
| This is clearly not the sort of thing
| corporations want to hear when considering who
| to trust going forward in cloud computing.

Microsoft's cloud is hiccuping. Has anyone even noticed?

| Microsoftâs cloud has been hiccuping all week,

| access to the services included in its
| Business Productivity Online Suite, which
| includes Exchange Online, SharePoint Online
| and Office Live Meeting.

| John Suffolk's (the Cabinet Office CIO) generously replied to my questions
| posed in last week's blog. G-Cloud is 'go' and it will be a Private Cloud,
| based on Open Standards and will use a mix of proprietary and (free?) open
| source software. All I reckon is left it to see whether it's stitched
| together by Microsoft's technology or Red Hat's.

| Our great Free, Open Source guru Richard Stallman dislikes the Cloud concept.
| He sees it as a way to hand over your freedom to proprietarists and to get
| locked into someone else's computing paradigm. Many including this author
| agree with him. Below though is a manifesto for a 'good' cloud that would
| benefit the businesses and citizens of the UK without loss of rights and
| freedoms.
