Comment Comment by augustz GCP and AWS do not use 6 people per region.With AWS a region has more than one availability zone.aws ec2 describe-availability-zones --region ap-south-1 for example shows two datacenters in mumbai.Across physical site security, to power to network to just hard drive and system decommissioning, more than 6 staff.I wonder if this is partly why AWS has done so well. I've used colo and hosted providers who do seem to have basically no one actually on site. parent augustz 9 years ago
With AWS a region has more than one availability zone.
aws ec2 describe-availability-zones --region ap-south-1 for example shows two datacenters in mumbai.
Across physical site security, to power to network to just hard drive and system decommissioning, more than 6 staff.
