Human Error Brings Microsoft Down
from the it'll-happen dept
The outage of most of Microsoft's worldwide network of Web sites was caused by human error. It was some sort of router misconfiguration. The interesting part, though, is the fact that it seems Microsoft has their servers set up in a rather stupid way, with no backup DNS servers located separately from the primary servers. This is a classic misconfiguration issue and it baffles me how they would let this happen.

Sheer arrogance. That's why I hate Microsoft.
