They didn't have that capability, which is why they dumped us

People have had a lot of problems with cloudfare but whatever you do, DO NOT USE AWS Servers.

Don't worry, we won't touch AWS with a 10-foot pole

Yeah, pretty much. Now we're with a much better host

We may add some redundancy like that some day if we get the funding for it.
