Resilient Infrastructure: Why Ownership Matters

Relying entirely on public cloud services sounds convenient, until they go down. Even the largest providers face outages that can bring global businesses to a standstill. At BastionX, we believe true resilience comes from owning and understanding your infrastructure, not renting it.

With the right MSP/MSSP partner, you can build and manage your own environment efficiently and securely, often spending up to 50% less on hardware, licensing, and long-term operating costs. When your systems are designed and managed by BastionX, they’re built for reliability, performance, and independence.

The Reality of Cloud Outages

The Reality of Cloud Outages

Even the biggest names in the industry experience failures that ripple across the internet. A few examples from 2025:

Amazon Web Services (AWS)
October 2025
DNS resolution issues in the US-East-1 region disrupted major services like Zoom and Ticketmaster.
Microsoft Azure
April 2025
A nine-hour outage affected Azure AI services.
September 2025
VM backups failed for several hours.
June 2025
Azure Front Door stopped serving requests globally.
Google Cloud
June 2025
A widespread incident caused product backlogs and degraded performance across multiple services.
Heroku
September 2025
Prolonged platform instability caused elevated error rates and interrupted AI model access.

These outages remind us that control matters. When you own your infrastructure, your uptime isn’t dictated by someone else’s service. You decide how, where, and when your systems operate.

At BastionX, we help businesses take back control, designing infrastructure that’s secure, cost-effective, and built to withstand the unexpected.
