I cringe every time a project uses the name "Skynet". First, it's overused. Second, it's literally the name of the AI project that went rogue and tried to kill all the humans in the Terminator movie universe. Not exactly the best association. Just find another name.

On the other hand, I am filled with positive associations at the name.

Reliability, redundancy, disaster recovery, cost cutting, and absolute focus on execution!
