Why is that troubling? There are currently 5 AZs in the region (there were fewer when they designed their service), so the best they could possibly do is 20% of their instances in each. Losing 20% of their instances instead of 30% isn't much of an improvement.
What they need is failover between regions/clouds and external monitoring, not a slightly better allocation of instances between AWS AZs in one region.

- dangrossman 14y agoThey don't.
- jbaudanza 14y agoAccording to this tweet, they are in 3 AZs. https://twitter.com/heroku/status/219937314749677568 https://twitter.com/heroku/status/219937314749677568
- dangrossman 14y ago3 AZs all in the US-East region. That's consistent with what we're talking about.
