The funny thing is that our ex CTO thinks that using AWS has more disadvantages than having all of our servers in two different regions in Linode. Mind you, he also thought that CDNs were not as useful as serving assets statically from those two servers as well.

If you use two different Linode regions this outage shouldn’t affect you at all?
The CDN thing is a pet peeve of mine too. Are you even measuring load performance? Where are your customers located? If you’re just wanting to throw everything on a CDN “because it’s faster” then no it’s not very useful at all.
