\"IBM<\/p>\n

If you remember, September wasn’t necessarily a great month for tech giant, IBM; their global load balancer and reverse DNS services fell flat for 21 hours. The issue was blamed on a third party domain name registrar that was transferring some domains to another registrar. The registrar in question accidentally put the domains on a ‘hold’ status that prevented them from being transferred. While the load balancer and reverse DNS service relied on the domains, the services became inaccessible to customers.<\/p>\n

IBM has released a incident summary document in which it says “multiple domain names were mistakenly allowed to expire and were in hold status.” This incident report reveals that the network-layer.net domain was tangled up in the fray, in addition to the global-datacenter.com and global-datacenter.net domains that IBM reported as faulty in September. It’s currently unknown if IBM or the domain registrar was responsible for the failure to renew the registration for the domains.<\/p>\n

For a company basing its future on the cloud and artificial-intelligence driven automation, this doesn’t look particularly well for the company.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
