cloud crash + the VB work playlist
Description
When Amazon Web Services went down this week, a small glitch in Virginia knocked major apps and airlines offline around the world. In this solo episode, I break down what actually happened, why AWS is basically the “digital real estate” the internet runs on, and how one DNS error can make everything, from Alexa to Delta, hit pause.
We also zoom out to talk about our growing dependence on the cloud, what resilience really means in tech, and how moments like this are quietly shaping a smarter, more secure internet as we move into the post-quantum era.
In the lifestyle segment, I share a quick fall travel recap from D.C. and Montreal, the Zara long waxed trench coat that became my workwear MVP, and the Victoria Beckham Netflix soundtrack that has officially become my favorite work playlist this season.
