RIM: “BlackBerry Outage Caused by Core Switch Failure” Now Working Through Backlog

BlackBerry Melted Dont Even Reply

RIM let the AP News know that the reason for the prolonged outage in the EMEA region for the last two days is because of a “Core switch failure.” You would think that they would have a redundant hot or cold core switch but according to RIM the “transition to a backup switch did not function as tested, causing a large backlog of data… RIM said it is now working to clear the backlog and restore normal service as soon as possible.”

Amen to that! Next time maybe we need a backup for the backup for the backup?
