Description

Welcome to episode 327 of The Cloud Pod, where the forecast is always cloudy! Justin, Matt, and Ryan are here to bring you all the latest news (and a few rants) in the worlds of Cloud and AI. I’m sure all our readers are aware of the AWS outage last week, as it was in all the news everywhere. But we’ve also got some new AI models (including Sora in case you’re low on really crappy videos the youths might like), plus EKS, Kubernetes, Vertex AI, and more. Let’s get started! Titles we almost went with this week Oracle and Azure Walk Into a Cloud Bar: Nobody Gets ETL’d When DNS Goes Down, So Does Your Monday: AWS Takes Half the Internet on a Coffee Break 404 Cloud Not Found: AWS Proves Even the Internet’s Phone Book Can Get Lost DNS: Definitely Not Staffed – How AWS Lost Its Way When It Lost Its People When Larry Met Satya: A Cloud Love Story Azure Finally Answers ‘Dude, Where’s My Data?’ with Storage Discovery Breaking: Microsoft Discovers AI Training Uses More Power Than a Small Country 404 Engineers Not Found – AWS Learns the Hard Way That People Are Its Most Critical Infrastructure Azure Storage Discovery: Finding Your Data Needles in the Cloud Haystack EKS Auto Mode: Because Even Your Clusters Deserve Cruise Control Azure Gets Reel: Microsoft Adds Video Generation to AI Foundry The Great Token Heist: Vertex AI Steals 90% Off Your Gemini Bills Cache Me If You Can: Vertex AI’s Token-Saving Feature IaC Just Got a Manager – And It’s Not Your Boss From Musk to Microsoft: Grok 4 Makes the Great Cloud Migration No Harness.. You are not going to make IACM happen Microsoft Drafts a Solution to Container Creation Chaos PowerShell to the People: Azure Simplifies the Great Gateway Migration IP There Yet? Azure’s Scripts Keep Your Address While You Upgrade Follow Up 00:53 Glacier Deprecation Email Standalone Amazon Glacier service (vault-based with separate APIs) will stop accepting new customers as of December 15, 2025. S3 Glacier storage classes (Instant Retrieval, Flexible Retrieval, Deep Archive) are completely unaffected and continue normally Existing Glacier customers can keep using it forever – no forced migration required. AWS is essentially consolidating around S3 as the unified storage platform, rather than maintaining two separate archival services. The standalone service will enter maintenance mode, meaning there will be no new features, but the service will remain operational. Migration to S3 Glacier is optional but recommended for better integration, lower costs, and more features. (Justin assures us it is actually slightly cheaper, so there’s that.) General News 02:24
