Problem 1: Insufficient Servers Due to Semiconductor Shortage
The COVID-19 pandemic has seen an extreme drop in semiconductor production in factories across the globe. This, coupled with an increase in demand for electronics due to more people working at home, has resulted in an international shortage of semiconductors that, in turn, has resulted in a prolonged delay in the delivery of the servers we ordered for our data centers.

We have even looked into investing more than market value to speed up delivery, but to no avail. We are not giving up, however, and are in continued talks with vendors from around the world to find a timely solution to this problem.
Reading is hard

We also don't know the hardware dependencies of the server software, so just renting random servers is easily not a sufficient solution.
