My side project StatusGator monitors status pages (including IBM's ill-fated page) and I'm seeing more than 10% of the nearly 800 services we monitor having an outage right now.
So it appears to affect anyone who depends on IBM Cloud.

Maybe it helps with doing a sanity check before picking a provider. And, I guess, at a basic level it helps with accountability/transparency.
The last time we went down I questioned out loud the point of the status page and the general consensus was for others to be able to reference our outage.
Do you have similar %'s of monitored cloud services that have gone off the air during other providers' outages?
