On: InfluxDB Cloud shuts down in Belgium; some weren't notified before data deletion

Contrary to the majority of the thread here, I find this to be an architectural issue. For whatever reason the system was designed without a way to communicate important service and maintenance issues to the customer. That’s part of the good architectural design of a system – it must include human factors, communication among them.

I’ve worked at companies that aren’t even in the tech sector with less than 10 people and brownouts were SOP.

This is just regular old incompetence/negligence/greed.
