If you're not in the clock, then there is no emergency you could respond to.

I don't understand this "work ethics" of US americans to be available 24/7. Just don't and you don't habe to complain vor be petty.

If you think docker/container are for security, you're doing it wrong.

Well, N towers are supposed to be enough. That's the reason you should have N+1 in the first place.

Also this assumes that you can repair/replace a tower faster than it takes on average a tower to fail.

Well, if your infrastructure is mission critical, then you need one more as spare.

In this case a new one a qarter mile to the side with a redundant power supply. Mission control could be smack in the center between the launchpads.

Of course someone®©™ has to make sure, that the whole facility is only utilized in such a way that n-1 launchpads is considered 100% usage.

Rant/advice over from someone working in a data center, where spare machines are always in use, because someone©®™ said moar power is more important then reliability.
