This should be the official anti-pattern when designing a status page.

[qeternity]

It is...it's literally the reason products like statuspage.io exist, because if your status page has any dependencies on the services for which is provides statuses, then it's not really a useful status page.

And yet, I cannot find any obvious information on where statuspage is hosted.

[smarx007]

http://metastatuspage.com/ should give a hint

[asp2insp]

Builtwith seems to think they are hosted on EC2 https://builtwith.com/statuspage.io

[manojlds]

Their status page says so anyway - http://metastatuspage.com/incidents/lb3rpt031vmx

The status page should work with just IPv4 or IPv6, BGP and round-robin on a bunch of location-diverse, simple, real metal, web-boxes that only serve status.
