Microsoft said it lost weeks of security logs for its customers' cloud products

If you use Azure in any realistic production environments, then it's on you. Even with $100k in free credits, they couldn't convince me to use it for more than a month. It is expensive, the interface is highly user unfriendly and most important of all, their products don't at all seem reliable for production workloads because of stuff like this. Sorry Microsoft, I think you can do much better.

Azure Blob storage is considerably cheaper than S3 or Google, for example. (Not cheaper than Cloudflare, but that one doesn't have a supported FUSE driver). I've been trying hard to find instances where they lost data and could not.

Them offering the ~same product but cheaper is good.
