Definitely a text book example of how not to deploy a Cloud based application. The company had no idea what they were doing, especially when it came to running a business in the Cloud. They had no fail-over locations, no backups and no staff capable of providing security services or even knew what to do when they were attacked. Then to top it off, they had made guarantees to their clients as to the level of support and reliability... After such a Bork-up they had no choice but to fold up or they would have been sued into oblivion anyway. (Listened to a Podcast this morning on exactly that story.)
