Moved to Azure because my country has massive electricity stability problems and company is worried about hosting providers' reliability.

Host static web app in West Europe. West Europe goes down for a couple of hours because of power outage in Europe.

That's hilarious. Can't catch a break.

Deploy to regions for stability

People have probably forgotten this, but the original purpose of Terraform was easy cross-cloud redundancy.

That's such an anecdote material.

Don't let the politicians touch anything important smh

@MammaNeedHummus Yup, I suggested that. The one app on Azure is on the free tier, though, so only one region is available for it. I'd have to upgrade and that requires me to make another business case document with pricing estimates and go through the whole corpo red tape shit again and honestly, I'm too tired for that shit right now lmao.

@ostream yeah the thing goes down for no visible reason at all and getting access to monitoring costs more money. bamboozled by Microshit. their portal is shite. At least I am not on shared hosting anymore, that was an even worse nightmare.

@dissolvedgirl all the administration aside: if they're not prepared to pay a very small fee for a multi-region hosted static webapp, then they can't complain about the downtime.
If it's critical to have x% uptime, pay for guaranteed x% uptime

@dissolvedgirl what kinds of issues did you have with shared hosting

@gitstashio can't SSH into the server, PHP config issues, mostly. Sometimes hours of downtime.

@dissolvedgirl thanks for letting me know

How did the move go? Was immigration difficult in Azure?

@MammaNeedHummus It was... not fun. Service provider didn't understand our specs, so I had to spend hours learning shit myself. They're not software devs, they're hardware people. Don't know why we went with them... There are loads of hidden costs too. Deployment is much better as on shared hosting, however I am having issues with DNS records at our DNS provider, so need to do some weird hacks. Will never use Azure for my personal projects, it's difficult.
