Servers go down in AWS too, they are a colo shop with an open source services arm to implement multi tenant services of which you are one tenant yet paying for that multi tenancy service.

You may not notice it having 1 but have a few thousand. Everything goes down in AWS just like it does on normal servers, no one likes to mention that though so often its blamed on something else like software that is running on the cloud that just went down hah.

Okay fair comment. But in terms of the entire data center being unreachable, that has never happened - not in ten years.
