In 2025, the fragility of global digital infrastructure became evident as significant outages affected cloud platforms, telecom networks, and other critical systems, revealing the systemic resilience issues organizations face. Despite multi-cloud strategies, many businesses remain dependent on single regions or providers, leading to cascading failures during outages. Notably, incidents such as the AWS us-east-1 outage and disruptions involving Google Cloud and Microsoft services highlighted the interconnectedness of modern infrastructure and the widespread impact of single points of failure. The Cockroach Labs' State of Resilience 2025 report found that most executives acknowledge these structural weaknesses, yet few conduct regular failover testing or have robust response plans. As AI technologies introduce new, intensive workload demands, the need for resilient systems becomes more pressing. Organizations are urged to prioritize designing architectures that can withstand region-wide failures, diversify dependencies, and implement thorough testing and continuity playbooks to prepare for the increasing challenges expected in 2026.
