If you were deployed in 2 regions would it alleviate the impact?
- ransom1538 5y agoYes. Exactly. Pay double. That is what all the blogs say. But no, when a region goes down everything is hosed. Give it a shot! Next time an entire region is down try out your apis or give AWS support a call.
- hvgk 5y agoNo. We don't have an active deployment in that region at all. It killed our build pipeline as ECR was down globally so we had nowhere to push images. Also there was a massive risk as our target environments are EKS so any node failures or scaling events had nowhere to pull images from while ECR was down. Edit: not to mention APIGW and Cloudwatch APIs were down too.
- multipassnetwrk 5y agoDepends. If your failover to another region required changing DNS and your DNS was using Route 53, you would have problems.
