Good morning.

Yesterday, AWS sneezed and one-third of the internet caught a cold. The global tech ecosystem spiralled into chaos as services blinked out one after another. AWS experienced two quick-fire waves of outages for the first time this year, and honestly, I can only imagine the stress levels in Amazon’s site reliability war room.

In other news, stay tuned for today’s The Next Wave: Francophone Africa, where Lina Kacyem unpacks what Logidoo is really building after acquiring Ivorian road freight startup Kamtar.
