While a locally based Exchange server might be unavailable, it could be due to things outside of the control of that server. For instance, the small company my wife works for has an Exchange server that’s administered by a terrible outsourced company. The Exchange server has very good uptime, but it’s regularly unavailable, due to internet outages with Comcast Business Class high-speed internet, issues with third-party plugins to Exchange, or other issues. I’ve looked at the server before, and its uptime is very good, it’s just that with a locally hosted server, there are more issues. Even working from a cloud will be disrupted when Comcast has poor uptime.

This article doesn’t talk about the infrastructure Exchange was built on, nor does it go into who the people are that host it.

Shame on you Google.
