Anything that takes 2 days usually revolves around storage migration or
entire backbone reshuffle - just my personal experience.
If it was cloudstack to something else transition, i'm sure it would
have been flexible enough to do gradual migration that would be nearly
seamless.
This looks to be much larger that they cant lower downtime, hence
storage followed by some other backbone change - would be the primary
suspect.

I don’t know if anybody else has seen this but I think Verizon may be
about to get trashed in the media over this:

Does anybody know if they actually use Cloudstack ?
I’ve read some stuff from this year saying that they were baking
their own:
http://www.eweek.com/cloud/verizon-terremark-cto-tells-how-company-built-its-own-cloud.html
but I also recall some stuff around them using cloudstack (or a
commercial distribution)
Keen to know.
Its not OUR problem that a cloud provider has major downtime , but
there could be some fallout-by-association if this story escalates.
