Fwd: [TriLUG] An AWS Story....

[shay walters]

I ran across this in the "TriLUG" members email list. I had heard
about it previously - maybe on slashdot - but this is the first
first-hand account that I have seen. I thought it was worth a read to
people who are interested. The article about the account getting
restored is longer, but is also more informative. Just a reminder to
make sure that you have backups of your data that is not under the
control of other people.

This is a bit of a long read, but keep at it because the Hero of the
narrative is one of our own!

I was so happy to read that Tarus Balog was the one Human at AWS that cared
enough to get involved and make this story have a happy ending.

Well done Tarus!!!
