There's a lot of talk about software supply chain risks, and AI hype vs doom but what about lack supply chain diversity?

This is a boring topic compared to exploits or SkyNet, sure.. But a lot of mature orgs move to multi-cloud for a good reason. Because if you put all your eggs in the us-east-1 basket, eventually you are going to have a bad time. AWS is an extremely mature org as well. I met some of the most competent engineers in my life there, but you know shit still happens.

It concerns me if going forward if 95% businesses are going to have a huge dependency on a single vendors' REST API endpoint. Whose status page looks like a Christmas tree currently. I guess BedRock is one partial solution.
