Organizations are becoming more confident in using the cloud for mission-critical workloads — partly due to a perception of improved visibility into operational resiliency. But many users aren’t taking basic steps to ensure their mission-critical applications can endure relatively frequent availability zone outages.

Data from the 2022 Uptime Institute annual survey reflects this growing confidence in public cloud. The proportion of respondents not placing mission-critical workloads into a public cloud has now dropped from 74% (2019) to 63% (2022), while those saying they have adequate visibility into the resiliency of public-cloud services has risen from 14% to 21%.
