This should be the official anti-pattern when designing a status page.



It is...it's literally the reason products like statuspage.io exist, because if your status page has any dependencies on the services for which is provides statuses, then it's not really a useful status page.


And yet, I cannot find any obvious information on where statuspage is hosted.


http://metastatuspage.com/ should give a hint


Builtwith seems to think they are hosted on EC2 https://builtwith.com/statuspage.io


Their status page says so anyway - http://metastatuspage.com/incidents/lb3rpt031vmx


The status page should work with just IPv4 or IPv6, BGP and round-robin on a bunch of location-diverse, simple, real metal, web-boxes that only serve status.
