Can't wait to see the bill from Twilio because of this lol

Was willing to give them the benefit of the doubt that they're growing fast, but now seeing that they've failed to scale properly, and are missing little things that become big things later. I can't take that risk.

They lied. They're completely dependent on GCP. So, I gotta do some research, i need something a little more stable (and less dependent on one company's whims) than this. This is bad for them, because it really strikes at the heart of their 'big claim,' peacefull software deployments. This is chaos.

Isn't that why some of us build in fallbacks for AWS-hosted services? I mean, their enitre platform, both public and private facing, is running on the same thing. One error, one problem, takes out the entire service.

Something like this should NOT take down an ENTIRE service. There should be a backup when literally your business is about being the reliable backend. This just seems like poor planning to me.
