Does your house have redundant power connections to the grid and a failover generator?

That said, my plex server for my friends is on an ups and I'm on 1Gb fiber and I have better uptime than AWS.

> I have better uptime than AWS.

You're not serving tens of millions of people.


You don't know how many friends he has!

Nor the amount of computers. So what

How distributed would it have to be to make up for the lack of redundancy? DDoS attacks work for a reason, so how feasible would it be (if you had massive buy-in) to scale tiny data centers? I honestly don't think that feasible, because you can't get that massive buy-in, but I'm curious what others think.

For many types of workloads (like AI inference), high availability is not needed for individual racks.
