AWS CloudFront content delivery network experienced a significant outage affecting major education platforms and AI services. The incident exposed single-vendor infrastructure risk for critical online services.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cloud Infrastructure.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Your platform just went dark because one vendor's edge network failed. Multi-CDN or hybrid delivery is now a feature you sell, not a nice-to-have - and your customers will start asking about it this week.
