I always wondered why people don’t implement a multi-cloud infrastructure if they want/need extra HA. And I know Oracle offers a solution with Azure and GCP, with AWS on the horizon. Not to advertise for Oracle because they’re terrible otherwise, but I can’t imagine wanting a multi-cloud option and not consider them.
Multi region is already hard enough with transactional management not being easy to split between the regions, and multi-cloud is another order of magnitude more difficult than multi region.
With that said, use2 and others were still up, so if they were just multi region and failed over to east2 they would have been fine.

Multi cloud is very difficult to do well.
