IT outages have been reported across the globe as airlines, airports, banks and media companies have suddenly experienced ongoing disruptions that have upended the daily lives of potentially millions of people.

American Airlines, United and Delta have asked the FAA for global ground stop on all flights, according to an alert from the FAA on Friday morning.

The FAA is telling air traffic controllers to tell airborne pilots that airlines are currently experiencing communication issues.

"No one here knows anything, the gate agents said we all know as much as they do," Scott Sanders told ABC News, saying his flight from SeaTac Airport in Washington was delayed for two hours on the tarmac before passengers were deplaned. "I feel awful for the employees and those that have a sick loved one they need to get to or funerals, thankfully that's not us."

see this is the problem with cloud, only a few big providers going down will affect everybody.

And being on the cloud or not would not have changed this.

It's not a cloud related outage, it's a broken automatic update rolled out to Crowdstrike causing the havoc..

Not a chance. Market is still closed, and there's no indication of actual impact on Crowdstrike in terms of law suits, compensation etc. There's still a long way down to go.

Crowdstrike did better than any malware

Topic came up in my Friday morning German coffee meeting

Yeah, I think with the scale of this cock up.. Crowdstrike are going to fall considerably further down.

There will be some big boy accounts that are going to possibly try financially sink Crowdstrike now.

That's... not how any of this works.

This is not a cloud issue. Got nothing to do with the cloud.

If you run CS on Windows and you have it in your garage you will be effected.

We are just seeing lots of servers in the cloud go down as that's were everyone has moved their infrastructure to.

The only thing not affected right now are chissles and stone tablets...
