In this episode, Jay and Joao discuss an important elephant in the room - what do you do when you have no power? How long will your UPS and/or generator last? Power is definitely a real challenge, and it's even worse if you're dealing with an entire location losing power! And that's exactly what happened in Portugal. Jay and Joao will discuss this blackout event, and what it means for business continuity.
