South Korean web giant Kakao, a twelve-year-old company that boasts tens of millions of users and enjoys a central place in local life, has decided the time is right to develop operational resilience resources and processes.<\/p>\n

If it seems a little odd that a company of that scale lacks those items, cast your mind back to the October datacenter fire<\/a> that took Kakao offline for days.<\/p>\n

That incident saw the Korean Google’s e-commerce, voice, transport, gaming and fintech services all suffer significant outages. The most impactful failure was that of the Kakao Talk messaging service, which is widely used by government agencies and has assumed the status of de facto telecommunications infrastructure in South Korea.<\/p>\n
