Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaah.. I am not sure adding an additional third party and point of potential failure would help mitigate the issue of receiving data from third parties... but good luck.

Fair point. The value isn’t in reducing the number of components, it’s in swapping a fragile one (your app endpoint) for something built specifically to stay up, queue, retry, and give you visibility when the rest of your stack isn’t. There are plenty of other services on the market that offer similar services.
