> Cloudflare’s critical Workers KV service went offline due to an outage of a 3rd party service that is a key dependency.

So they depend on GCP for (some of) their services

If that is true, and there is no other BGP shenanigans, then I suspect this dependency will not be around for long

From the article:

> Workers KV is in the process of being transitioned to significantly more resilient infrastructure for its central store: regrettably, we had a gap in coverage which was exposed during this incident.

My WAG is it comprises 95% of the company infrastructure

I heard that it was a "mandatory dependency" to mitigate "insider risk" or something. There's no way it's going anywhere. Odds are they'll just enforce even slower rollouts "to catch things early".

WAG = wild-assed guess?

Maybe beastman82 is wagging his tail?

ceo just said not for long

Sub-processor pages are an easy way to verify that sort of thing.

Google denies they had any outages.

They can say that, but any one of their customers knows it's not true.

[hinkley]

Is this the ol' "100% down for 3% of your customers" scenario?

Come on, linking four hour old tweets instead of their actual service dashboard where they clearly state there was an outage.
