So, did anyone here get burned by the Cloudstrike debacle Friday?
We didn't but a couple vendor did. But, afterwards I was surprised one had suffered the outage when I found inadvertently found out that their production SQL Server is running 10.50.4339.0 (go on, check when that release came out), so was "impressed" they had been affected by a release day patch...
(Un)fortunately, the difficult question now is how quickly can I get the company to bin that dumpster fire...

Steve, Ryan and I were traveling on Friday. It was a mess, but Steve and I made it home. Ryan ended up hopping through flaming hoops for the weekend to get home.
Other than that though, no. Several friends I know did though. Chris Yates, Wendy Pastrick and Tim Ford all had very bad days at different companies.

Anyone notice that Microsoft is trying to blame the EU for their 2009 non-compete settlement being the root cause of the CloudStrike issue?

They are pretty desperate to make this not about them. It isn't... but it also is.

Luckily not, didn't know that CrowdStrike existed before it happened

About a 3 hour delay Fri for me, mostly due to a slow flight getting to Austin to take me home.
Yesterday, no real delays for UAL in Denver related.
I think MS blaming the EU is about trying to deflect blame and avoid lawsuits, not based in reality at all

It gets better. A few days after the CrowdStrike outage, now THIS is a thing and it's totally Microsoft:

And it is harder to recover, just worked on a single system for 5 hours this morning 🙁

Got systems with HP Wolf, which hang during boot, ergo, total restore..........
