FYI, PagerDuty is built on top of AWS. They used to do some multi-cloud stuff, but no longer the case (too expensive, too complex, causing more issues than it solved). Source: worked there for 2 years.



Alerting or control plane or both? If alerting is AWS only, I'm very sad. What happens if there is a global AWS outage? Never been one yet, but never say never.


If your service needs to survive a global aws outage, you just can't run with any saas. So many of these companies are single regioned in AWS. Auth0, Okta, Datadog, many others put customers in a regional box, and if that region goes down, all of those customers go down.
