> The Facebook / Meta outage was so significant

The author specifically called out the Meta outage, as if he was offering a prescription ("It's easy to configure systems with tools like Ansible or pyinfra at scale") that would have prevented Meta (at Meta's scale) from suffering an outage. The argument that Meta should not have used DNS except that Meta runs at a scale where DNS is necessary... who comes up with these arguments?
