Yet again I will point out that because "enterprise web development" is cargo-culting these days, a single website might rely on multiple gigantic "cloud" providers at the same time.We know these exist because when Azure was down, some were blaming CloudFlare. 🤡There are only so many of these gigantic providers. So if a website relies on CloudFlare, AWS, and Azure simultaneously, over the last month it would have been dead in the water on three different occasions, for hours on end. 👀

> the root cause of the outage was a configuration file that is automatically generated to manage threat traffic. The file grew beyond an expected size of entries and triggered a crash in the software system that handles traffic for a number of Cloudflare’s serviceshttps://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2025/11/widespread-cloudflare-outage-blamed-on-mysterious-traffic-spike/Who would win?#CloudFlare

This is, of course, hilarious. If a single traffic spike can bring CloudFlare down for hours, and with it innumerable websites and services, what exactly is the point of CloudFlare?Yes, I understand that a way smaller traffic spike would probably bring any individual website down if they were all hosted separately. Sure.But bringing them *all* down at the same time would be impossible. That's resilience through independence.CloudFlare is a single point of failure, and it keeps failing.
