So what should the ideal redundancy plan be here? If you can't log into the CDN provider and they are down do you you just have a second one ready (and paid for) and then log into your registrar and be ready to switch to that secondary CDN provider in this scenario? Or is there some sort of load balancing / routing solution between CDN's that I don't know about / understand?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

So cloudflare.com runs on Cloudflare?

Turtles all the way down. But in all frankness, if Cloudflare's own site did not run off of Cloudflare's infrastructure, why would anybody trust them with their websites?

Ironic isn't it.

Don't want to go off topic, but if I want to prevent my website going down because of stuff like this in the future, will having back up DNS entries solve the problem?

I know DNS will fall back if it can't reach a service, but would a 502 trigger that?
