Cross-Cloud Failover: Can You Actually Survive an AWS Outage?

What happens when AWS IAM goes down globally and your multi-region architecture becomes a single point of failure? This episode tackles the hard reality of cross-cloud redundancy — from Kubernetes-orchestrated failover at scale to a $12/month VPS setup that handles 220,000 API requests daily across three providers. We trace real case studies from teams who've run the drills, measured the RTO, and published the exact failure patterns that never show up on architecture diagrams. Plus: why the hardest part isn't the automation — it's trusting it enough to let it run without a human grabbing the keyboard. Episode #669707 — open it directly at myweirdprompts.com/669707
