Small Railway customer here ($5-10/mo, Spring Boot service). My service stayed up the whole time on May 19 — I only learned about the incident from this post-mortem. "Detailed post-mortem about an incident the customer didn't even notice" is the strongest trust signal Railway could have given.

The broader concern though isn't Railway-specific: GCP's "we can suspend a downstream provider with no warning" policy is a structural risk for every IaaS-on-IaaS layer (Fly, Render, Northflank, etc.). Curious whether anyone here has seen contractual or technical mitigations beyond "have a second deploy target ready to switch to."
