Wouldn't the people putting out emergency website likely be local governments? If so, wouldn't there be hurdles to using cloud providers like Netlify?
How do local governments usually host their websites?
- sl1ck731 7y agoI work with some local governments in cloud consulting. They use different clouds the same as anyone else. We actually see a lot of local governments (cities or metro agencies) doing things in AWS. I'd say the likelihood in my experience of them grabbing this kind of thing and deploying it is probably pretty low. The ones I work with would leave that up to a contractor.

- codingdave 7y agoI work with a few thousand local government entities, and they rarely have concerns with cloud hosting. They do have concerns with regulatory compliance, which means 100% accessibility on anything they publish. They also need to meet any public records laws in their jurisdiction. This tool seems to be fine for accessibility, and Netlify has a history of deployments so they have an audit trail of the public content... so I don't see anything here that would be problematic.
