Except when their datacenter burns down...
How is that different than Hetzner for a VPS though? As far as I'm aware a Hetzner VPS won't automatically fail over to a different region either.
I guess the joke is that OVH lost a lot of customer data in a big fire in 2021 (30k servers/blades AFAIK).
Not a real issue if you design for HA. E.g. servers are in different AZ. Replica storage etc.
They have placed different data centers very close so it might not be enough
Guess that is why bigger clouds cost more. Partly! No free lunch.
Or you can use a more reliable host like Hetzner.
it is reliable until they decide to close your account for no reason
I hear stories like this on every provider.
