What happens when the cloud turns off? The Nayara Story
summary
A Russian-part-owned petrol distributor, Nayara Energy, loses cloud access when sanctions trigger Microsoft cut access, leaving core systems and email unreachable for weeks to months and halting operations; similar US sanctions affect Hague bodies. The concrete risk is geopolitical withdrawal of provider APIs and identity services, not abstract privacy law. Remedy requires mapping the software supply chain, deploying local control points, and aligning with laws like DPDP Act while proving failover procedures actually restore services under sanction scenarios.
