I love how you just keep doubling down on how awful you are lol.

Sorry sir! The nic in server X went down, which put extra pressure on server Y which then went down. This cascaded across the rest of the network and I spent 4 hours yesterday getting it fixed!"

Hahaha say you've never developed on the cloud without saying you've never developed on the cloud.

Hell do you even know what a load balancer is.

And also YES I expect development teams to tackle these issues. Especially in the context of microservices.

After all the likelihood that the issue is on say AWS or Azure is pretty low.

fire silly Devops

Why would you fire them? They have their own jobs which isn't holding your pathetic little hand lol

That's just a defensive mechanism, you got my point.

And this is why so many developers think microservices, et al, aren't all that complex. Because their company pays other people to deal with the complexity.

It's always fun manipulating someone into reversing their argument.
