Ask your provider when they last tested a failover of their primary cloud region. Then ask how long recovery took. It's one of nine questions we think every compliance team should put to any provider of on-chain risk solutions. Read about the other questions here:

This afternoon WorkOS experienced a 23-minute outage affecting authentication and other API requests. A failover of the cache used for feature flag evaluation left app connections stalled, and requests waiting on flag checks held database connections open, causing queues to build and other requests to fail. Many of you using WorkOS-powered products experienced failures, including failed sign-ins and long delays. I'm sorry for the disruption this caused. We're taking this event seriously and have already fixed the root cause, with work underway on additional layers of protection. We will publish a full RCA next week explaining in detail what failed, why recovery was not automatic (should have been ~seconds), and what we're changing to prevent this issue from happening again.

You can now run Vercel Sandbox in all Vercel compute regions. ▪︎ Set a default per project ▪︎ Add failover regions on Pro and Enterprise ▪︎ Cut latency and control data residency

More changes in tonight • Expanded swap routing to find better prices • Smarter trade splits across liquidity pools • Faster quote loading • Automatic RPC failover and retries for temporary quote timeouts
