Anecdotal, but AWS had more global problems than the triple connected data centers I've used in twenty years.
I suffered through many rough times, data center connection or power problems were not (very seldom) one of those.
Most of the problems came from apps that we didn't build well to scale or that had bugs (most frequent cause of problems and sitedowns).
