Yeah, if you're a major business and don't have geographic redundancy for your service, you need to rework your BCDR plan.
But... that costs money.
So does an outage, but I get that the C-suite can only think one quarter at a time
Absolutely this. We are based out of one region, but also have a second region as a quick disaster recovery option, and we have people 24/7 who can manage the DR process. We're not big enough to have live redundancy, but big enough that an hour of downtime would be a big deal.
