AWS had an outage that blocked all EC2 operations just a few months ago: https://aws.amazon.com/message/101925/

This was the largest AWS outage in a long long time and was still constrained to a single AWS region.

Which is my point.

The same fault on Azure would be a global (all-regions) fault.

Yeah I remember one maybe four years ago? Existing workloads were fine but I had to go and tell my marketing department to not do anything until it was sorted because auto-scaling was busted.
