Adding multiple cloud providers to be resistant on a global outage of one cloud provider and then adding a SPOF by cloudflare loadbalancing is one of the least intelligent ideas i heard this week.
- mjlee 9y agoHi, I helped write this post. We could have been more clear in the post but the availability gain here is focussed on internal tasks. As an example, we retry failed payments on a user defined schedule - we'd like to be able to do that from anywhere we choose. Keeping these background processes going matters, and that's what we've worked hard to ensure we can achieve.
