"But what if a meteor shower hits both of our US datacenters simultaneously?!"
1 comments

Technically meteors are small objects that do not impact the earth (the ones that do are called meteorites), and meteor showers are completely harmless to both people and datacenters.
What if the entire staff at both data centers are so captivated by the shower that they ignore a real disaster? ;)
What I meant was asteroids simultaneously destroying both data centers :(
