This is The Internet Report, where we uncover what\u2019s working and what\u2019s breaking on the Internet\u2014and why. Despite a quiet last couple of weeks on the Internet, we started off our new year with quite the bang. As droves of mildly-caffeinated workers returned to their home offices on Monday after the holiday break, many were surprised to find that Slack was not available. On today\u2019s episode, we go under the hood of Slack\u2019s Monday outage to see what went wrong and how it was resolved. We\u2019re also excited to be joined by Forrest Brazeal, a cloud architect, writer, speaker and cartoonist, to talk about everyone\u2019s favorite subject: cloud resiliency. Watch this week\u2019s episode to see the interview and hear our outage analysis.\nShow links:\nhttps://forrestbrazeal.com\nhttps://acloudguru.com\nhttps://cloudirregular.substack.com\nhttps://cloudirregular.substack.com/p/the-cold-reality-of-the-kinesis-incident
