Google’s $94.1B stake in SpaceX isn’t a passive investment; it’s a strategic pivot from software to physical infrastructure. By securing launch capacity, Google is positioning its Cloud to battle AWS in the orbital server room, reshaping the future of internet access and pricing.
When AWS us-west-2 went down, it exposed the lie at the heart of cloud architecture: most ‘high availability’ setups are single-region in disguise.
